Final Food Assignment

Living in New York there’s many different kinds of foods around. Supermarkets for example have foods like canned products, meats, fruits, and bottled beverages. Restaurants in other cases sells food that is being cooked and prepared for you as the buyer and then being consumed. Even though America is consuming these foods from all of these places a lot of the foods that is being eaten is really bad. Bad meaning that before these foods are being introduced to us they become harmed before it even gets to our systems. Starting from animals being tortured to the fruits and vegetables being grown on a farm and having to be sprayed with pesticides. On a farm the animals for instance happen to be tortured and the craziest thing is that lots of advertisements that goes through the media today shows farm animals roaming around freely to their hearts content but in reality these animals are being harmed in the most worst ways. The cows for example are abused they are confined into small areas with many other cows and a lot of these industrial places are feeding these cows food that gets them bigger in weight. This puts a lot of stress onto the cow and it gets them sick which is not good for lots of people who eats beef. My whole idea of why many industrial places do these thing to the cows is all balled down to the making of many. Money is the main drive in a lot of peoples mind all over the world especially America. So in other words the bigger or better the cow can become the more money these industrial places will make. With that being said it kind of goes the same for the fruits and vegetables. All the fruits and vegetables are being sprayed down by pesticides that are not really healthy for the body. These vegetation products are being shipped and treated as if they were toys given to a three year old and given to America. I’ve always been told when I was younger to always wash my fruits and vegetables before I eat it and I’ve always done that until today. But lots of times the reason to always wash your fruits and vegetables thoroughly is because they are being put in factories where they are not in a very clean place. Out of all the vegetation you buy from a supermarket or a market lots of these fruits happen to have at times wax that no one can never notice but its on there and also we as buyers don’t really know where these products have been the most that we can figure is that they’re grown on a farm and being shipped to us. I personally think that there are many ways to not harm meats and vegetation but the reason why these industrial places do these harmful things to nature is still unknown to me. McDonald’s food is the most advertised and also most unhealthiest food being sold to America but people still tend to buy it. My reason for that is mainly all the things industrial food places do the animals that are made into our food like chicken nuggets and big macs are so artificial. Even the french fries from McDonald’s are artificial they contain beef broth. Which overall McDonald’s is definitely not vegetarian friendly.
On top of the harmful things that are being done to the animals and vegetation, artificialness becomes an insert into many foods today and it is rapidly increasing which is causing harm to us. Lots of food today have artificial things being done to them that isn’t natural like the french fries from McDonald’s that have beef broth and a whole bunch of other crap. Its just to enhance the flavor in the food which attracts people because of the big flavor difference that becomes good to peoples taste buds. But at the same time its how the food becomes artificial in the first place. Like in the movie “our daily bread” the poor chicks were being treated as if they were dolls of some sort. They were processed numerous amounts of times through countless machines. Then after the little chicks were being given hormones to enlarge them along with their breast.....its so messed up because they are given these things then killed and then processed into things like chicken nuggets which is still served to us with the hormones in the chicken while we eat them. Also the ways lots of industrial places are using mounts and mounts of high fructose corn syrup in products...like where is the real sugar. Why must they use things that are harmful to the people its creating obesity and killing people in the process. My overall point is that industrial food leaders are killing people and animals. They are creating food that is not natural its basically fake food. But people in America will continue to consume artificial food because it has already made its mark.
