Traditions has been changed since the western food had reached to the GCC, according to Topics-mag. com (2007) “Many people feel fast food plays a big role in changing the traditional diets of cultures worldwide”. The obesity is a global problem, that it impacted by the bad influence from the globalization. After this, the health became one of the most important issues, because changing habits can destroy the health, also it destroys the traditions, because children nowadays will not be able to eat and have the same healthy ood that their parents had.
