Fast food in moderation is good for you There are two points of view for different people who have different ways of seeing things. People see what's good: it's fast, cheap, tasty, convenient, and hits the mark when you're hungry and in a hurry. Then there's the downside of fast food being high in calories, sodium, fats and oils.
