Out of 100 persons shopping at city malls in the country, roughly 80+ (80% or more) of the number end up eating in fast food chains. That is a pretty good stat for mall operators and food retailers. Good for business, they can say.
But there’s a possible downside for people who frequents fast food restaurants.

According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a dozen different types of perfluorinated compounds were detected in persons it tested.

Hamrful chemical PFC or its derivatives is also used in the manufacture of pizza boxes, hamburger and sandwich wrappers and beverage containers (sofftdrink, coffee).
