Publisher's Synopsis
Most any honest person, no matter how refined the palate or how anointed the social status, can own up to harbouring at least one fast-food guilty pleasure. One item against which their resistance is useless and their fealty is set. We tend to think of fast food as corporate and impersonal. And for good reason. But, in unexpected ways, fast food is also deeply personal. This title tells the personal and contemporary story of America, its innovations and failures, its international charisma, and its regional identities through its beloved roadside fare.
