That's a lengthy list of charges, but Eric Schlosser makes them stick with an artful mix of first-rate reportage, wry wit, and careful reasoning.

The Recorded Picture Company production Fast Food Nation, a character study set in the Fast Food industry, is based on material from th e Book of the same name written by Eric Schlosser.
