The new section "Advertising" is heavy on criticism, but lacks basic content on how the fast food industry advertises, which is a bare essential for such a section.

"Filling stations" is a peculiarly American term, and should be avoided here.[[User:Royalcourtier|Royalcourtier]] ([[User talk:Royalcourtier|talk]]) 11:12, 6 November 2017 (UTC) |

I'm new here but I was wondering if there's such a thing as citation-stuffing? There are so many references attached to one sentence -- citations 43-58 are all bare URLs, etc. Are there too many? Is this a normal amount? Should I change all of the bare URLs to proper citations? Just asking so I don't waste all my time. I'm happy to do it. But could this be citation-stuffing? Is there a "choose one" thing or are they all legit? Do more and more references just mean it's more and more true? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rimsroot (talk • contribs) 21:03, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The list of related subjects is extremely pious, diabetes type 2 and diet? It's not really related to this article about cuisine and skews the article toward a particular mindset, not fast food per se. --94.195.193.43 (talk) 19:51, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think you should also mention Chinese Fast Food, especially since there is a long history of urbanization and such food, particularly things like 串. The current article ignores traditional forms of fast food outside England, France, and Rome.

I find it VERY odd that on the french fry section, you only speak about the Netherlands while Belgium has exactly the same tradition, more sauces and the french fries were even invented in that country. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.235.229.129 (talk) 17:52, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"According to a recent study headed by scientists from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and the University of Granada, eating commercial baked goods (fairy cakes, croissants, doughnuts, etc.) and fast food (hamburgers, hotdogs and pizza) is linked to depression... With regard to the consumption of commercial baked goods, the results are equally conclusive. "Even eating small quantities is linked to a significantly higher chance of developing depression," as the university researcher from the Canary Islands points out."
The section claims that the McDonald's restaurant is the busiest in the world and set records for customers served. This statement is confusing because there is no context. Is it the busiest McDonald's, Fast food hamburger restaurant, fast food restaurant or restaurant in general? Same for the customers served. Who ever added it needs to clarify the statement or I will delete it. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 20:05, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This seemed confusing to me: "In 2006, the global fast food market grew by 4.8% and reached a value of 102.4 billion and a volume of 80.3 billion transactions.[16] In India alone the fast food industry is growing by 41% a year.[17]"
102.4 billion what? Dejbren (talk) 14:23, 28 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Billy Ingram and Walter Anderson in Wichita, Kansas in 1921, is generally credited with opening the second fast food outlet" What was the first? The previous paragraph talks about fish and chips but not a franchised outlet. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 02:29, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The photo attached to the caption about fast food in the US consisting of burger, fries and a soft drink just shows burgers! Can't anyone find a photo of the actual things listed in the caption?!
In the fish-and-chips photo, those sure don't look like the "mushy peas" I've had, which were actually mushy, rather than neatly separated! GeneCallahan (talk) 07:32, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
