Fast food is everywhere. Who does not like a burger or a kebab? Once in a while it is acceptable, but unfortunately nowadays through a lack of culinary skills in some of the families, or simply aren’t bothered enough, fast food comes into some lives far too often. And, overdoses of salt and sugars are present in huge numbers, not to forget ingredients that some people can’t even pronounce let alone know what they are.
