...Fast-Food and Obesity Fast-food chain’s have been facing lawsuits in the last couple years like the one two New York teenagers filed against McDonald’s accusing it of failing to provide necessary information about health risk associated with its meals. As many Americans consume Fast-food and spend more money in Fast-food restaurants and less in grocery stores, nutrition and health advocates have become concerned about American’s health and nutrition. Knowing the number of calories and the amount of fat and salt in the Fast-food and knowing the dangerous effects of the Fast-food, people should decide which item are better choice to plan a convenient healthful diet and take action. As Americans lives become more hectic they have less time to select, prepare and eat food, so they switch to plan B without any thinking. Fast-food attracts most American’s because they are widely available and inexpensive .Eric Schlosser has noted “That 70 percent of the fast food stopovers are “Impetuous” done with little thought at the tern of the moment”. These stopovers are overflowing with a high number of calories. These great numbers of calories consumed break the of energy balance where the calories taken in eating Fast-food are greater than the calories used during physical activities. This causes a serious problem which is obesity. As Surgeon General David Satcher pointed out, “People eat more calories … than they work off”. The numbers of obese people have been...

...Introduction A. In general, the food related products will include: Beef, Chicken, Turkey, Potatoes, Fish, Processed Foods, Stoves, Vegetables, various machinery, and cash registers, order monitors, ovens, wireless systems for ordering services. Products will be explained in more detail further on. B. What will the product or service be called? The named Baked Hut shows our customers the kind of products we export because, usually fast food eaters are accustomed to oiled foods, so as an alternative for oil, most products will indeed be baked to lessen the amount of calories. It will also affect how we advertise it because it is a short, catchy, and non-difficult name that no one will have problems pronouncing or reading. Baked Hut will export food related products that will differ from a typical fast food restaurant in various ways. In current typical North American fast food markets, restaurants such as McDonald’s, Burger King, and KFC provide customers with food containing high amounts of calories, saturated and trans fats, sodium salt and processed sweeteners that increase your risk for chronic diseases. Baked Hut will alter this issue by providing the same idea of fast food, but instead encountering the health risks associated with regular fast food and providing customers with healthier food. The idea is for customers to gain the same pleasure of eating “fast food”, but without being conscious of how it is affecting their health. Generally, we’re looking at North American...

...Individual Innovation Paper McDonald’s Arch Deluxe EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Individual Innovation Paper: McDonald’s Arch Deluxe Analysis - Why It Failed INTRODUCTION McDonald’s has been in the hamburger business since the 1950’s and grown into a world-wide fast-food giant known for “Quality, Service, Cleanliness and Value”. As the McDonald’s empire grew so did their menu, it adapted to the tastes of their customers. In 1996 McDonald’s launched the Arch Deluxe; their answer to what adults want to eat. The public did not agree with McDonalds and the product was not successful. CAUSE OF PRODUCT FAILURE McDonalds advertising tried to show that the new Arch Deluxe was fancier than their other menu items and overemphasized the how adult it was. In the end the public did not agree and it ultimately failed. The Arch Deluxe did not make a rebound although over time they did add menu items with similar ingredients on the menu today. WHY DID IT NOT REBOUND? I believe the reason McDonald’s would not bring the Arch Deluxe back is because it is such a well-known financial failure for such a successful multi-national business. CONCLUSION The creation of the Arch Deluxe was not a big mistake in of itself, they wanted to create something adults would like to order and during research and design the testing groups liked the Arch Deluxe. The problem was with the way McDonald’s advertised and promoted the Arch Deluxe; they thought their idea was innovative and the advertising did not...
