If you take your food fast, there's two restaurant chains nearly always on hand to serve up a quick fix almost anywhere around the globe, McDonald's and KFC. For this episode of VS, our guests debate which high street favourite should be the victor and whether our diets and waistbands can be winners in this equation, too. Dahaba Ali Hussen is a reporter for the Guardian and The Bureau of Investigative Journalism. Phil Samba is a London-based writer and public-health activist. He’s also a contributing author to the recently released anthology book MANDEM, a collection of essays exploring what it means to be a Black man in contemporary Britain. Serving up the scores is Coco Khan, but there can only be one winner – you the listeners decide – follow the link below to cast your vote.
