With the advent(出現(xiàn)) of fast food chains from the West such as McDonald's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Pizza Hut, the Chinese are being introduced to a diet that markedly(明顯地) increases the death rate from certain diseases in any population.

The main killers in North America, the degenerative diseases(變性疾病)such as heart attack and stroke as well as colon(結(jié)腸) cancer, will become a way of death in this country if the Chinese do not act quickly and compete with these health destroying food chains.

Scientific studies from all over the world show that a diet high in animal foods such as pork, beef, including sugar, white flour, white noodles and even white rice, undermines(破壞) one's health. Deposits of animal fat cling to the walls of arteries(動脈), blocking the blood supply to various organs.

This causes diseases in almost every organ, but in particular it damages two of the most vital ones, the heart and the brain.

Compare these problems with the excellent health one may enjoy if one consumes good Chinese food. The cook goes out every day, procures great-tasting, fresh vegetables, then cooks them for just a few minutes so that their nutritional value is preserved and afterwards serves them in a most artistic and elegant fashion. Please cling to your traditional ways of eating. They are far superior to those of the West.

One reason Western fast food restaurants make money is that the food they serve, which comes from assembly lines(裝配線), will not attract bugs(病菌)or spoil easily.

Western restaurants are clean and tastefully decorated. Moreover, these restaurants also do indeed have "good service and an inviting dining atmosphere". However, Chinese food chains could do likewise(同樣地)if they would organize themselves as the Western chains do.

These lessons in management and decoration are the only ones worth learning from the Western fast food chains. In other words only imitate the style of the restau-

rants, not the content of the food or the menus in any way, shape or form.

Do not let the desire for money destroy the wonderful tradition that China has established in producing absolutely fantastically tasty as well as healthful food.
