Looking back at my childhood I can say fast food was a big part of it. Living with my mom and then going over to my dads on the weekends played a big part in it. My mom would cook at home sometimes but the majority of the time was getting food from the fast food places. Sure the baby sitter would cook during the day but at night it usually fast food. Little caesers pizza, taco bell and wendy’s was a usual during the week. It also didn’t help that my step dad worked the night shifts at pizza hut. Also In my elementary school if you had the most stars for homework the teachers would take us to wendy’s and buy us food. That was when I was with my mom. When I was at my dads I would always eat out. I only remember once that he actually cook. Other than that it was eating Chinese food or going to hometown buffet which was my favorite. Then for treats my dad would take us to get ice cream . The bad thing about my dad was that he never denied me food so basically I was always eating and it wasn’t healthy foods. Eating the fast food didn’t make me feel any different from eating actual home cooked food. I guess I was just so use to it. So growing up I had more food that was cooked by strangers than from my actual family. Which I would have to say is a little sad to say.
Now fast food is still in my life but not as big as when I was a child. Now that I live with my dad and don’t do the whole going over to one parents house during the weekends. I would have to say that I eat out at the most twice a week. Mostly my sister cooks for me at the house. Which is good because I hate to cook and if I didn’t have her I would probably starve or go get fast food. Even though my sister works at little caesers now I don’t eat it. It’s very rare for me to actually eat it unless she brings me chicken wings then I do tend to eat all 8 of them and that’s within the first 5 minutes of her giving them to me. The places that I mostly go to if I do eat out is Rubio’s, Topper, and Chinese food. Those are my weakness’ when it comes to eating out. The food is just so delicious even though I know that its bad for me and its just going to give me health problems in the future. Now I basically stick to eating chicken made at home. If you were to ask anyone I know they would tell you that’s its true all I eat is chicken. Hopefully in the future I can say that I was able to cut fast food out completely from my life.
