Proliferation of global chains changing habits and worrying both doctors and parents
NEW DELHI: Shivam Kumar, an eighth grade student, likes nothing better than a McChicken burger from McDonald's. Sometimes, he doesn't even ask his parents to get one, but just picks up the phone and orders home delivery.
'He goes out with friends and they end up eating at some fast-food restaurant. At home, too, some days we just end up ordering in,' said his mother Rita, an education consultant.
On average, Shivam eats at McDonald's at least three times a week - and that is not counting Domino's Pizza or Pizza Hut at least once a week as well.
