A society describes a group of people who share a common territory and a culture. In everyday conversation, people rarely distinguish between the terms “culture” and “society,” but the terms have slightly different meanings, and the distinction is important to a sociologist. Sociological analysis can be applied to every expression of culture, from sporting events to holidays, from education to transportation, from fashion to etiquette. Everything about a chain restaurant reflects culture, the beliefs and behaviours that a social group shares. They examine the extensive, detailed physicality of fast food: the food itself, wrappers, bags, trays, those tiny ketchup packets, the tables and chairs, and even the restaurant building. People have written entire books analyzing the significance of fast food customs. Chances are, you will elicit hostile responses from the restaurant employees and your fellow customers. Or throw your trash on the ground as you leave. Ask to have your meal served to you at your table. (You would be doing what sociologists call ethnomethodology: deliberately disrupting social norms in order to learn about them.) For example, call ahead for reservations, ask the cashier detailed questions about the food’s ingredients or how it is prepared. If you want more insight into these unwritten rules, think about what would happen if you behaved according to some other standards. Customers’ movement through this fast food routine is orderly and predictable, even if no rules are posted and no officials direct the process. After a quick meal, customers wad up their paper wrappers and toss them into garbage cans. They stand in line, pick items from the colourful menus, swipe debit cards to pay, and wait to collect trays of food.
