Reply from Kate, Age 15 - 10/14/08 - IP#: 66.26.47.xxx Yea, but that means that its much harder to break down and the fats and stuff are just sitting there in your stomach. Fast food is bad for you. End of story.

Reply from Taylor, Age 15 - 10/14/08 - IP#: 75.66.48.xxx No, because your stomach acid breaks down food. Stomach acid is STRONG stuff, so it can break down almost anything. Food doesn't break down or rot inside you when you eat it, your stomach acid breaks it down, so I don't see how that woman's experiment is realavant at all to how fast food acts in our bodies. It's not even close to comparison.
