foods considering factors like nutrition, age, status, convenience, speed , money, taste,
environment of the store because they influence the decision making process . There are other
factors that can change the family decision making process like income, age. "hen they grow
up day by day they will take decision regarding food considering different factors tat their
parents gave them already. ttitudes of children change day by day as time passes and parent
can influence less gradually.
Fast food has been developed in the world economy over the past four decades. &iterature on
fast food were started to be published in ancient time in /ome. From the beginning of the 12s,
somewhat a huge number of publications have been published on fast food industry. The early
publications on fast food were basically about the positive and negative aspect of fast food and
the attitudes of the customers as a whole. attsson mentioned that high school students knew
the good and bad attributes of fast food. They also inscribed the difference in attitudes between
male and female students. Female students considered the fast food from the broad food chain
contet and male considered fast eating and satiety. The study pointed out good and bad
attributes of fast food and attitudes of young students, but did not consider the loyalty status ofthe student and overall customer service of the restaurants. They also pointed out the differences

maintain weight. :ruger, 'lanck and 6illespies study mentioned the overall behavior of adults

+ust to reveal the choice and perception and knowledge of people regarding fast food. 9tudies

themselves. These studies stated that consumers have inadequate food safety knowledge but

corporations cannot identify the presence or the sources of contamination, or give customers
adequate information on preparing their packaged food, can the consuming public be epected
to protect itself# Further, those who have the knowledge do not necessarily practice what they
know. This study also did not mention the reasons why consumers with adequate food safety
knowledge did not practice the behavior. 5evertheless, ;arrow, /emig, and

or restaurant you eat at.
