Drive-Thru Dreams: A Journey Through the Heart of America's Fast-Food Kingdom | 
so-soI enjoyed this book and learned quite a bit. The writing is okay but nothing too remarkable. If you‘re curious about the history of fast food establishments or if you want an easy non-fiction book I‘d recommend checking it out.
pickAuthor Adam Chandler takes us through a history and the financial success of the fast food industry that made household names put of brands like McDonalds, KFC, Wendy's, and Taco Bell. Exploring the origins of the simple burger to becoming a multi-billion dollar industry, Chandler comments on fast food's influence on society and the nostalgia associated with it.
pickA quick, fun look at fast food in America and abroad. So many books are negative about fast food, but Chandler takes a look at the history behind brands like White Castle and DQ and how they shaped American leisure and dining. He looks at the current landscape and compares traditional fast food with fast casual chains like Panera and Chipotle. The most fun was his look at outposts of American fast food abroad. #BorrowNotBuy
