	abbie1948  #86668  Mon, 04 Apr 05 05:37 PM "Fast Food" is a term usually used for food which is standard and quickly prepared by retailers, such as Macdonalds, Pizza delivery places, etc. It is essentially an American phenomenon, but has spread world wide.    abbie1948

	bvpraveen  #86972  Tue, 05 Apr 05 04:38 PM Dear Abbie, Then are fast foods fastly prepared commercial foods? Is the following list correct? Fast Foods : McDonalds, Pizza, Pani Boori, Bhel Poori ( The last two are known only in India ). Commercially prepared foods : Biscuits, Soft drinks in Tins, Breads,etc Praveen.    bvpraveen

	abbie1948  #86982  Tue, 05 Apr 05 04:52 PM That sounds about right. (Is Bhel Poori the name of a chain of food stalls or something? Like McDonalds? The list of commercially prepared foods is endless - tiined dhal, bottled curry sauces, baked beans, etc etc.    abbie1948

	bvpraveen  #86988  Tue, 05 Apr 05 04:55 PM Abbie, I couldn't get what you mean by "that sounds ABOUT right". Does it mean "almost right"? Meanwhile, Bhel poori and Pani poori are fast food ITEMS just like finger chips,cutlets,etc. Praveen.    bvpraveen

	abbie1948  #86990  Tue, 05 Apr 05 04:59 PM Sorry - i must try to stop using idioms. I mean that sounds right - but I didn't know what bhel poori and pani poori were. The real point about fast food is that it is cooked quickly to order in a basic restaurant or cafe, or a 'take away' food place just like hamburgers. By "finger chips" do you mean what the Br. call 'chips', and the Amer. call "fench fries"?    abbie1948
