Fast-food

Fast food or, in Portugal, also ready food, is the generic name given to the consumption of meals that can be prepared and served in a small interval of time. Sandwiches, pizzas and pastries are marketed in this way, among others. It is commonly applied to food sold in stores belonging to large food chains. The same food, which is sometimes sold as a quick meal, can also be eaten in restaurants. Fast-food has become synonymous with a stressful lifestyle that has been criticized since the late twentieth century. The main organized movement of contraposition is called slow food, and had its origin in Italy in the year 1986. Foods served on the streets by street vendors are part of a practice known as street food. It is a practice that goes back to antiquity and has a presence in practically all regions of the modern world, and can be considered a form of fast food. Fast-food is the name given to the consumption of prepared meals in restaurants like McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Telepizza, Bob's, Habib's, among others.
