What is the difference between nouvelle cuisine, and fast food? You decide.

Its so ironic how there are so many types of food in different cultures. Imagine if you put all the food around the world into a menu, I think it will turn into an encyclopedia instead. There is also a range of food, prepared in different ways. Good examples like: baked, heated, sauté, grilled, etc. As the human develop their knowledge, they develop new forms of food. Like: canned food, fast food, snacks, or "light snack". But really, the two types of snacks are still the same. Believe me, its like Coke Zero and Diet Coke. The only difference is the amount of gas, not the sugar.

But even if you prove me wrong, there are still things out there that has a common recipe, but different commercial names. I decided to discuss with you guys about this because I just had KFC for dinner (and I rarely do that). Then I was wondering to myself "What is the difference between high class food, and fast food?" There are many explanation to this question of mine. For now, I will stick with one solution. They both use "real food", and when I say real food, I meant meat, wheat, dairy products, etc. However, the preparation and presentation are different. We handle delicate, expensive, rare food with care. We also treat it like royalty, and nurture it, until it becomes edible. While fast food, is simply fast. Cut, powdered, fried, serve.

Nouvelle cuisine's presentation looks rather tiny, but artistic, like a canvas painted by a 5 star chef. It sits there like a pile of... oh I don't know... chihuahua's doodey perhaps? While fast food comes in "plastic utensils". OH my, why don't we just make everything out of plastic, and live a happy environmental life. The world can always change, and we can make a difference. SO GET YOUR DERIER UP, and make yourself useful. Remember, you are doing this to sacrifice for the future generation. Oh, and leave a comments about your opinions on nouvelle cuisin vs. fast food.
