Question

Is FAST FOOD so called because of the speed your body rejects it ?

Answer 1

No

Answer 2

its just made fast & ready as soon as you want it!

Answer 3

LOL! Its called that because you can order pay and sit down to eat in less than a minute! (If the service is right!) Seriously you have made me think of the term fast food in a different light!

Answer 4

God, yes!

Answer 5

The record for keeping a big Mac down is 17.0324 minutes by a a gentleman called Dwayne from Trailer Trash City Kansas. Most big Macs are regurgitated within 25 seconds. Burger King not to be out done is working on a faster burger that defies anyone keeping it down for more than 4 minutes. Word has it the Dwayne is going to 'shovel down that sumbitch lard bullet and to h**l with the puking' We wish him well.

Answer 6

yes especially curry

Answer 7

i think its just called fast food because it ready to go and it can kill ya quick if you eat out alot (like mcdonalds or burgerking or other c**p like that..)

Answer 8

No. That wouldn't reallly be good marketing, if you think about it. haha!

I think  the term originated because generally  they (Mcdonalds, etc) would prepare the food and then let it sit under hot lights to keep it warm - then when people would order, they would not have to wait for the food to cook. They could get it fast.

From Wiki:

Fast food is the term given to many items that can be prepared and served very quickly. While any meal with low preparation time can be considered to be fast food, such as TV dinners, typically the term refers to food sold in a restaurant or store which is low quality prepared and served to the customer in a packaged form for take out/take away. The term "fast food" was recognized in a dictionary by Merriam-Webster in 1951.[1]

Outlets may be stands or kiosks, which may provide no shelter or seating,[2] or fast food restaurants (also known as quick service restaurants). Franchise operations which are part of restaurant chains have standardized foodstuffs shipped to each restaurant from central locations.[3]

Answer 9

lmao.... maybe

Answer 10

Yes and the speed in which your cholesterol rises

Answer 11

Hahaha that is hilarious. I actually laughed a little bit. Hope not, as most people eat it at least once every couple of weeks, and so many eat it for dinner every night. Fiance sees it as so convienient (well, it is) so I imagine that people everywhere do, despite the obvious health issues and greasiness (sp?).

Answer 12

perhaps

Answer 13
