Presentations Project Web 2.0

This week in ISM3004 we had to finish the assignment we started a couple weeks ago.  I chose coming up with an entrepreneurial idea and then presented it using author stream.  My idea was taking a fast food restaurant such as McDonalds and turning it into a healthier version of fast food while keeping a similar taste.  For the most part, people can't taste the difference between whole wheat and white, fat or low far, sodium or reduced sodium, so why eat all this unhealthy food and clog your arteries when u could eat the same food thats alittle healthier?

About Skinny Joint:

The burgers would have whole wheat bread and we would serve veggie and lean burgers.  Fried chicken would be fried in whole grain flour using very little oil and grease.  Cheese and milk would be fat free and salads would be made with fat free dressing.  Fries are one of the most popular foods from fast food places.  Sweet potato fries taste even better and have more nutritional value and instead of being fried in oil they would be baked. Sandwiches would be made with turkey sausage and bacon and we would use egg whites instead of whole eggs.

All of this food would have the same delicious taste of fast food without the unnecessary fat and calories.  People who love fast food but also care about their health will love "Skinny Joint".  Your fingers won't be covered in grease after taking a bite out of your burger however you will still have that satisfying feeling in your mouth and stomach after finishing it and be able to eat more throughout the day without going over your daily amount of calories and fat.  Multiple items on the menu of McDonalds are more than the amount of something allowed each day.  

Here is my presentation on a restaurant I created called "Skinny Joint"

Presentation!

What I Learned:

I tried to make talking about nutrition as exciting as possible by incorporating a very humorous movie which clearly emphasizes the importance of  eating healthy.  I didn't want to go on with to many nutrition facts so I chose the ones I believe are important and gave examples of two of McDonalds worst items on their menu and related it to how much fat you're supposed to consume in one day and how much is in one McDonalds meal.  I also tried to interest everyone within the first few seconds by posing an idea that most people dream of.
