In the final chunk of the book the author discusses dangers of the meat used in fast food what should be done to prevent it, and America's economic imperialism around the world. Chapter 9 discusses how a man named Lee Harding got food poisoned from E. coli O157: H7 "a virulent and potentially lethal foodbourne pathogen" through Safeway frozen hamburgers. Children under the age of five, the elderly, and the people with impaired immune systems are the most likely to suffer from illnesses caused by E. coli O157:H7 . He discusses how an 11 year old boy got sick from a school hamburger, E. coli was later found in the meat and the company's owner eventually killed himself. Schlosser also dicusses Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Clostridium perfringens which are also foodbourne bacteriums. He also dicusses the McDonaldization of the world by adding a new McDonald's to every place that is in good relations with America. For example, putting McDonald's in Eastern Bloc countries after the fall of Communism.
