Chapter four
The types of food the fast food joints sell are usually the kinds of meals you would have on a special occasion (hamburgers and hot dogs at a fourth of July BBQ etc) most families liked to consider these meals a treat and didn't have them that often, so when college students and families see that they are served at these places they realize that they can have these foods more often. It could even trigger memories from another time they had had the meal, which is another way that the industry can 'make you happy'.

Fast food can definately be called "happy food" or "comfort food" but I don't think fast food should be compared to fourth of july food because fourth of july food is way better. But I do understand and agree the fast food triggers those type of memories.
