Zinczenko explains: “Where should consumers find alternatives? Drive down any thoroughfare in America and I guarantee you will see one of the more than 13,000 McDonald's restaurants in our country. He continues: “Now go back down the block and try to find a place to buy a grapefruit.” (Zinczenko 463). What are the chances of finding a fruit stand rather than a fast food restaurant? Furthermore, consumers are not informed about what exactly they are eating. There are no calorie tables posted on foods, nor warning labels attached to them. Therefore, the buyer is becoming unhealthy and eventually obese. Zinczenko said fast food restaurants "would do well to protect themselves and their consumers by providing the nutritional information people need to make informed choices about their products." Furthermore, without warning, there will consequently be a greater number of sick and obese people
