From one sunrise to the next, Warrenton fast food restaurants dole out an average of 775 pounds of hamburger meat, 135 gallons of soft drinks and (!!!) 801 pounds of french fries. Multiply by 365 sunrises and we're talking megatons!
The answer to the question "who eats in fast food restaurants?" is easy. Practically everyone.
It's doubtful the likes of Julia Child or James Beard would ever darken the doorways of one of these establishments, and there are a few diehards who would rather eat nothing than stoop to the level of fast food.
