The town where McDonald's counts as health food: Tamworth is named obesity capital of Britain

LINK

In the city of Tamworth the air is polluted with the smell of grilled burgers and fried food. This is the fat capital of Britain'that affects adults and children. There you can see plenty of fast food shops.

A example is a woman who ate too much and her meal had too much calories. Shannon had always controlled her weight, for having strong bones and be healthy. When his daughter was born she began reducing the amount of food, she did more exercise and is now thinner.

The Tamworth pig is a local delicacy, one of the oldest of all varieties of pig, was raised for the first time in this city. However, now this species is endangered and is protected, so you can’t eat it. People continue eating fried pig and other fried foods caused that to most of the population mitat is obese. The population blame politics for installing so many fast food restaurants. But that isn’t so, everyone chooses what they want eat, no one forced them. These people don’t know what is a healthy diet and connsider that McDonalds is a healthy food restaurant.

Usual diseases in this area are heart disease and diabetes. Health service wants to invest money for obesity prevention. They built the Snowdome with a pool of 25 m but the people don’t use it. The population don’t  do any sports and they don’t think of themselves as fat people.

In my opinion, they should do a campaign for people of that city to realize that eating so much junk food causes health problems. They gradually improve their life and that would cause some junk food restaurants to close because people would not go. Although we must bear in mind that Cambar eating habits is difficult.
