New York Times Bestseller

"Schlosser has a flair for dazzling scene-setting and an arsenal of startling facts . . . Fast Food Nation points the way but, to resurrect an old fast food slogan, the choice is yours."--Los Angeles Times

In 2001, Fast Food Nation was published to critical acclaim and became an international bestseller. Eric Schlosser's expos revealed how the fast food industry has altered the landscape of America, widened the gap between rich and poor, fueled an epidemic of obesity, and transformed food production throughout the world. The book changed the way millions of people think about what they eat and helped to launch today's food movement.

In a new afterword for this edition, Schlosser discusses the growing interest in local and organic food, the continued exploitation of poor workers by the food industry, and the need to ensure that every American has access to good, healthy, affordable food. Fast Food Nation is as relevant today as it was a decade ago. The book inspires readers to look beneath the surface of our food system, consider its impact on society and, most of all, think for themselves.

"As disturbing as it is irresistible . . . Exhaustively researched, frighteningly convincing . . . channeling the spirits of Upton Sinclair and Rachel Carson."--San Francisco Chronicle

"Schlosser shows how the fast food industry conquered both appetite and landscape."--The New Yorker

Eric Schlosser is a contributing editor for the Atlantic and the author of Fast Food Nation, Reefer Madness, and Chew on This (with Charles Wilson).

Solid Shelves
Style: 36inch 4 tier, Style: 36inch 4 tier
These are easy to install with the right tools. (STUDS ARE KEY) The only thing to note is, that when assembling the pipes, it takes patience for them to tighten. BUT IT DOES! DONT GIVE UP!!💁‍♀️ They are sturdy, roomy shelves, and very very stylish. The color is very spot on. The shelves in particular, function just as described.

These 4’ wide shelves are very nice. The wood is blond and gorgeous. I bought 2 sets. The hardware is very heavy duty iron piping!

Great when installed. Some problems
Style: 48inch 2 tier
The shelves are assembled and installed on my wall. I'm happy with them. They look great and are very sturdy. What prevents a 5-star rating? The instructions were poor. Not a huge deal as I was able to figure things out. The wall anchors that came with were cheap and (in my opinion) unusable. I went to Lowe's and bought some drywall anchors that were rated for 79 pounds and they worked well. During the install, I wasn't sure if I should attach the wall plates and assemble the shelves on the wall, or assemble everything and then attach it to the wall. Assembling before hanging was the way to go but it took two people. One other minor thing: The shelves are stained on one side an not the other. Since I have them high up on a wall, I'm looking at the unstained side. Yes, I can stain the unstained part, but it would be nice if they had just stained the top and bottom at the factory.

Beautiful Shelving Unit
Style: 48 inch 3 tier
The shelving unit is beautiful. It has not been hung yet, but I plan on using it to replace my entertainment center and hang my TV above it. I am so excited as the shelves matched perfectly to my furniture so I believe it will be a lovely addition to my living room and take up less space than the entertainment center does.
