Everybody knows that fast food is unhealthy, but it might be worse than you think. A Big Mac alone contains 18 different chemical additives. An example of one of these unhealthy additives is sodium benzoate, which is banned in many countries for damaging cells and causing cancer. It is these delicious and unhealthy fast food items that inspired me to do this project. I have a background in cooking, having been on Masterchef Junior and working at a restaurant for the last 3 years, so I decided to try to replicate the flavors of my favorite fast food dishes. Making these recipes is better than getting them from a fast food restaurant because they do not have any of the additives, you can alter the recipes to better fit your preferences, and everything is better when it's home made. I began by going to all of the fast food chains that I am replicating and taking notes on the food. From there I did research on what each chemical added to the dishes is meant to do. Then I began making and testing my recipes, trying to make it taste the exact same without the chemicals. Finally I put the recipes and photos of each dish on this website so others can make them at home. If I were to continue this project in the future I would make more recipes to fit the preferences of as many people as possible.
