"How to draw cartoon fast food. We will start with a hamburger. Get a nice oval for your top bun. Now decide what you want on it first but circle a round right there for your burger. If you want to put lettuce you can kind of squeeze that in there like that. And your bottom bun another oval partially hidden just like that. Now color in the burger part because it is a little darker. Put some sesame seeds on top. And if you want to add anything else underneath. Put little squiggly lines to represent ketchup or mustard or have a piece of an onion sticking out every here there. Play with it, decide what you want on your burger. Hot dog even easier. Make an oval kind of squiggled up. Draw the hot dog right inside of there. Color in the hot dog a little bit if you like cause they are a little darker than the bun. Draw the back side of the bun. There is your hot dog. You can squiggle a little mustard if you haven't colored it in yet. That is basically it. Soft drink very easy. Two lines like this. Kind of almost forming a V but before they come together make a rounded bottom. Give yourself a nice lemon shaped oval at the top. Make a little hole of the straw come up like that. You might if you have an eraser, erase that little line or leave that blank before you draw the straw. Give it a little texture. A little bit of shadow. A little lid there. And there you have three elements of cartoon fast food. "
