## Resource

Michael Olson hoss Professor Catherine Keske, Ag Economist, University of California, Merced & Author, “Fast Food is Comforting, But…,” It does not take long for weeds to take over one’s garden. The same can be said for how quickly fast food can displace good food in one’s diet. And so we ask: How does fast food displace good food? Topics include the extent to which poor communities, like college students, rely on fast foods; how fast foods displace good foods; and what might be done to bring good foods back into the community’s diet.
