WHY BOYCOTT WHITE CASTLE
WHY BOYCOTT WHITE CASTLE
White Castle’s Troubled Past
White Castle is a fast-food chain with a long history. They have been around since 1921, and they have over 300 locations in the United States. However, in recent years, the company has been plagued by scandals and controversies.
Bad Working Conditions
One of the biggest issues with White Castle is their poor working conditions. Employees have complained about low wages, long hours, and a lack of benefits. They have also reported being subjected to verbal and physical abuse by managers. In 2017, the company was sued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for racial and sexual discrimination.
Health Concerns
Another issue with White Castle is their unhealthy food. The company's menu is full of high-calorie, high-fat, and high-sodium items. These foods can contribute to obesity, heart disease and other health problems. In 2015, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) named White Castle the unhealthiest restaurant in America.
Environmental Issues
White Castle has also been criticized for their environmental practices. The company's use of Styrofoam containers and plastic utensils has contributed to the pollution of our oceans and landfills. In 2018, the company was fined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for violating clean air and water regulations.

For all of these reasons, I am calling for a boycott of White Castle. I urge you to join me in refusing to eat at this restaurant until they make major changes to their business practices.
