fast food opinion 

A blatantly regurgitated, prepackaged opinion. An opinion that requires no research, understanding of the multitude of elements involved, or independent synthesis of the data available. Generally political, or theological, but almost always polarizing in nature.

Origins:

Often originating from best selling books on said topics written by authors that disregard scholarly objections to their opinions and instead focus on the criticism of the groups they are critiquing.

Also commonly originating in politically motivated cable television shows masquerading as news broadcasts, the opinion based article section of a newspaper, and rhetoric blaring radio shows.
