Should we stop deep frying?      Nowadays, people are preferring fast food to homemade or healthy food.   Most of the fast food is fried food; for instance, chicken wings, French fries, and hamburgers. Additionally, the majority of fried food consumers are children because of the delicious taste, and the way it is packed and served. As it is common among people, because oil is used to fry it, it is unhealthy and it causes cancer and obesity, so we should stop eating and feeding our children fried food.
