The McDonald’s fast food company is faxing legal action by people who say its food made them fat and sick. In New York City, legal action was recently brought against McDonald’s and four other fast-food companies. The lawsuits charge that these companies have not warned people that this kind of food could be harmful. About one-hundred of seventy-thousand American fast-food restaurants sell food that is high in fat, sugar and calories. They include potatoes cooked in oil and meat sandwiches called hamburgers. The restaurants also serve sweet soft drinks.
