Los Angeles fast food clampdown

[Tarkus]

I agree tark about the nutrional value of the meals I suggested but they are certainly no worse than a burger......

But furthermore, has anyone eaten at KFC in the states? I tell you, I had a craving for it (once every 10 months or so lol) and they have a "sides" bar. Where you can load up on 1 2 or 3 sides. Well, mashed potatos with gravy, corn (in and of itself isn't bad), stuffing, and all kinds of stuff. Plus they give you a PLATTER to heap it onto. I actually kind of felt a little bad having this huge plate with only a little bit on it lol....(it kind of looked like those posh restaurants where presentation is everything lol)

TBoy every 18 months getting a hankering for KFC and I always regret it.

I guess I am a bad example as I shop at Whole Foods once a week.

I'd like to know how the local regulators determine what is fast food? The easy one's are McDs, KFC and Burger King. Small or local chain's like Carl's Jr, In and Out, Pollo Loco, Panda Express would probably apply. What about Pepe's, Rubio's, El Torito's, Wok Express, Rascal's Teryaki? What about The Olive Garden? Enforcement would be a nightmare.

I see their logic. Fast food places are pervasive in areas like Compton, South Pasedena, Cypress, Reseda and those places. There virtually no healthy food stores in those areas. Business after business is a repeated pattern of fast food, pawn shop, liquor store, fast food, pawn shop, liquor store...
