# Year 4- The Big Debate - should we put restrictions on fast food intake?

In our Class Worship this morning, we took part in The Bg Debate which asked; Should the amount of fast food people are allowed to eat be restricted? We  learned lots of new facts including- 37% of all American adults have a least one fast food meal per day and that in the UK, 26% of all adults are classes as obese. We also questioned who judges what fast food actually is? Not all fast food is viewed as unhealthy and it also helps poorer families as some fast food is cheaper. As a class we voted that WE SHOULD restrict the fast food and the children debated both sides of the argument very well!
