Petition: Ban KFC/McDonalds in China

Petition: Ban KFC/McDonalds in China

The Issue

Heart attacks and strokes cost United States of America  444 billion dollars in 2010-rising every year. That's a high price tag for fast food, namely,  KFC, McDonalds: Lifestyles of greasy fast food. It is now spreading in China.  This Petition is to ask Chinese officials to ban KFC/McDonalds since they are harmful to health.

 Diet is becoming more and more "Westernized" with fast food mania, particularly the proliferation of KFC and McDonalds  and the overindulgence of grease (animal fats). Fast food (KFC/McDonalds) also has too much salt too.  China's economy is going suffer with escalating cholesterol levels and obesity: America has 700,000 strokes and more than a million heart attacks a year, and has a population of 307,006,550. China population 1,331,460,000. That represents a LOT more strokes and heart attacks and will be very costly for China with Americanized gluttony.

Obesity is rising in China, catching up with the West, "Increased meat and fat consumption, and lower grain and vegetable intake has left 60 million urban residents in China overweight and 160 million with high blood pressure, according to a report released at the weekend.

Hostile Western Imperialism taking over China is subtile  making Chinese addicted to greasy fat fast food!

Quote: "The fast food wars in China are fierce. In a country where Colonel Sanders is more omnipresent than Mao, McDonald's has some serious competition. That's why within the next four years, McDonald's plans to open a new outlet daily in China. By 2013, McDonald's hopes to add 700 outlets to its already existing 1,300."

 

Please BAN all KFC and McDonalds fast food restaurants for the good of China. Encourage the Chinese to eat more vegetables, or better yet-go vegetarian, for a healthier and more prosperous People's Republic. United States worships KFC and MCDonalds so most Americans are obese. More than 300 pounds (or 136 kg) body weight  is usual for the average American. Most Americans also hate vegetarians due to their addiction to grease; meat is the main staple of Americans which is why heart attacks and strokes are big epidemics in USA.

It is the duty of every Chinese to take care of themselves for the good of The Republic. I am writing to you for the greatness of China: Banning KFC and McDonalds so China will not have the same fate as United States being the land of  obesity, diabetes, strokes and heart attacks and multitudes of the disabled (unable to work). Brain strokes and heart attacks are the American way of life, need not be for the Chinese.

Due to United States of America's fast food nation, KFC and McDonalds grease has made the nation about 30% obese.

http://www.cdc.gov/obesity/data/trends.html

"During the past 20 years, there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States and rates remain high. In 2010, no state had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. Thirty-six states had a prevalence of 25% or more; 12 of these states (Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and West Virginia) had a prevalence of 30% or more."

"A long-term study has specifically linked consumption of fast food to obesity and type 2 diabetes.” (Scientific American, January 3, 2005)

American Imperialism, gluttony, waste can be seen with KFC & McDonalds so popular in America -  is destructive to the working population of the People's Republic.

PS-Interesting to note even the Moscow rats refused to eat McDonalds burgers. See article

Moscow rats refuse to eat McDonald's burgers.

Therefore I feel these fast food restaurants need to be banned.
