　　Why was his big idea so successful? Maybe the most important reason was that his timing was right. In the 1950s, most married women stayed home to keep house and take care of their children. In the 1960s, many women returned to the workplace. This meant that they had less time and energy to do housework and preparation for meals so they relied more on “TV dinners” and fast-food restaurants. Single parents also have little time to spend in the kitchen. People living alone also depended on this kind of food, since cooking for one causes often more trouble than it is worth.

　　Fast food is not part of the diet of all Americans. Another trend of the 1960s, sometimes called the back-to-nature movement influenced many people to avoid food that was packaged or processed. This preference for nature food continues to this day.

　　From the success of Raymond Kroc's fast-food business, we can say the social economic trends influence where and what we eat.
