We should welcome KFC and pizza hut as a compeor. And also we shouldn't forget that these food are only JUNK foods. Sagun Shrestha Raj Shrestha  - MOMO, CHOWMEIN   |115.131.8.xxx |2009-11-23 11:40:14 momo and chowmein are not junk food idiot. They are freshly produced at least. They are not stored in the fridge and genetically engineered. They are at least in many ways fresh food. We Nepalis are not known for eating so called junk food. This is a pure idea of the West that is encroaching in Nepal. First they bombarded us with Coke and Pepsi. And now this. Manoj Kumar Khakurel  - Mr.   |113.199.163.xxx |2009-11-23 08:32:53 THANKS KFC& PIZZA HUT. Concerned Nepali  - Obese Nepalese   |203.24.1.xxx |2009-11-23 03:47:46 I think this is a bad news for Nepalese. People will be going to these places without understanding the health implications of KFC and Pizza Huts. It is very sad to hear that Nepalese are being lured for these junk food when health concerned westerners are refraining from the fast food. This is a manipulation of peoples ignorance. It is better if people realise this sooner than later when obesity related diseases will grip the new generation...who will most likely want to indulge into this so called dining experience. pwlas  - do u know   |76.202.198.xxx |2009-11-23 03:45:30 do you know that chickens used by KFC are specially genetically engineered, and grown so that they have almost no bone? so they can just the meat out of live chickens for those boneless items. who wants to eat that ... iuhh David Anderson  - Pity the people!   |63.16.91.xxx |2009-11-23 03:17:12 I'm sad to hear about the coming to Nepal of Kentucky Cried and PizzaBut. This is the pesticided, genetically modified, hormone fed and m produced product that Nepali's have so far been blessed to have avoided. This "food" is nothing like the real dahl, bhat and tarkali that they are used to. Now there food comes primarily from local market vendors with fresh food. This is even true in the restaurants. But Big Food's "food" is raised in a far away country in the "most cost efficient" way possible. That means CHEAP. And cheap does not produce a healthy product. Next thing you know Nepali's will get to chow down on Big Macs. Pity the people. Powered by !JoomlaComment 3.26
