The pros and cons of fast food eating
Are fast foods nutritious? Can you get a
balanced meal in a fast food restaurant?
The answers to these questions depend on
what the restaurant offers and what you
choose.
Let's consider some of the pros and cons
of the foods available on the fast food cir-
cuit and see how these foods fit into the Fast
Food Four — (meat and alternates, bread
and cereals, fruits and vegetables, milk and
milk products).
The Meal: Hamburgers, hot dogs, deep
fried fish or chicken, and pizza are typical
selections which make up the main part of
a fast meal. They do give you the nutrients
found in two of the Fast Food Four (meat
and alternates, and bread and cereals). But,
they're usually high in fat and calories.
The Beverage: Soft drinks, shakes and cof-
fee seem to be the most popular drink:
Remember, soft drinks and coffee a, t
extras i.e., they do not contribute any
nutrients to your diet. And, all ' `shakes" are
much higher in calories and sugar than
plain milk.
So, what's missing? You are usually hard-
pressed to find a variety of fruits and
vegetables in fast food places. And the
choices that are available are not always the
best.
French fries are very high in fat and lower
in nutrients than the original potato. Burger
"fixings" such as tomato, lettuce and onion
are too skimpy to provide a complete
serving.
You'll also have to search for whole grain
products. The rolls, bread and pizza crust
are usually made from white flour — enrich-
ed, but lacking in fiber and some other
nutrients.
Morrison - Logtenberg
Kay Morrison and Jerry Logtenberg
were joined in holy matrimony on July 23,
1988 at the Lucknow United Church. Rev.
Gerald McFarlane officiated the
ceremony.
The bride is the daughter of Gordon and
Phyllis Morrison while the groom is the
son of Derk and Tinie Logtenberg, RR1
Dungannon.
Heide Holtman, a friend of the bride,
acted as maid of honour. Bridesmaids in-
cluded Laurine Tremaine, sister of the
bride; Melissa Logtenberg, sister of the
groom; and Glenda Morrison, sister-in-
law of the bride.
Attending the groom at the altar were
groomsman Bill Scheurman, a friend of
the groom, and ushers Karl Morrison,
brother of the bride; Ken Logtenberg,
brother of the groom; and Doug Krall, a
friend of the groom.
Irene West, sister of the groom, acted as
organist for the ceremony while the trio of
Anne Alton, Linda Axtmann and Andy
Williams, friends of the bride and groom,
provided three lovely songs.
Following the reception held at the
Lucknow Community Centre, the couple
spent their honeymoon in Niagara Falls.
The couple will reside at RR1 Dungannon
where Jerry farms. Kay will be teaching
at F.E. Madill Secondary School in
Wingham.
A very special thank -you to everyone
who attended the wedding and reception.

Thoughts for "Waist Watchers"
If you are concerned about controlling
your weight you might wonder if you can eat
in fast f 'od restaurants and stay trim. Here
.are some thoughts to consider.
Did you know that a meal of a
cheeseburger, an order of french fries and
a chocolate shake provides nearly 1000
calories, half of these from fat and sugar?
This selection supplies about 1 of the
average woman's daily energy needs, but
only '/a to '/a of her major nutrient needs.
Changing this order to a burger, cole slaw
and milk would reduce the calories to about
600 and increase the supply of nutrients.
