When the Act was passed, the meat packaging industry had to succumb to continuous inspections and investigations by the Agricultural Department which would be paid for by the meat packaging industry. Furthermore, the Act would require stamps on meat products that were sent to market for public consumption. There have been many amendments created to correspond with enhancements in the meat industry. The Federal Meat Inspection Act was established to warrant the health of American consumers. It abolished any diseased or contaminated meat before the consumer gets it.
On review of the options McGraw realizes that any of the alternatives would be successful as the team he has surrounding him care and always get the job done.

The writer does this because it gives the whole leaflet a more relaxed feel to it and makes it seem not so serious. The leaflet uses direct address and repetition of the word “You’ll”. The writer has done this because it makes the leaflet seem more personal to the reader and might persuade them even more to switch to becoming a vegetarian. Emotive language is also used in the text, when talking about the death of animals, they use the phrase “pain and suffering”, which makes the reader feel more inclined to become a vegetarian. Imperative verbs such as “Improve your health” and “Protect our planet” are used because it feels like an order or that it is something that you have to do.
(The pros and cons of being a vegetarian, 2013) Not only by “warding off disease,” but also by improving their immune system which is why they tend to get sick less often. Vegetarians also incur less sexual dysfunction and females experience milder menopause
Underneath the picture there is a bold line of writting stating that ‘A steak kebab is not only a good source of protein but contains essential vitamins and minerals, too’.

In the early 1990s, the Beef Industry Council launched a new advertising campaign. A series of commercials showed sizzling steaks while a voiceover proclaimed “Beef. It’s what’s for dinner” (Cattlemen’s Beef Promotion & Research Board, 2012), and a walk through any grocery store’s meat department shows that slogan is still effectively shaping the American dinner table. But before these neatly-wrapped packages of meat go from the store to the table, they are part of a living animal. In his 2006 book The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Michael Pollan endeavors to illustrate the process of how a cow becomes a steak.
Omnivore’s Dilemma: Beef Grade Omnivore’s Dilemma: Beef Grade 1 Omnivore’s Dilemma: Beef Grade Ryan G. Schostag DeVry University, Inc Omnivore’s Dilemma: Beef Grade Abstract 2 Healthy cows equal healthy consumers. Profit margins temp farms to grain feed and disable cows from living in their natural habitat and put them in jails instead. Maltreatment spreads disease unto people, and farmers’ greed is to blame. Cows are not as large when meandering and eating fresh grass while exercising and resting, but they have proven to be healthier for customers. Yet, to the dismay of Americans everywhere, we still buy from those retail and food service providers who serve this risky beef because of the savings.
Misner and Curtis (2008) talk about a research which shows that plastic cutting boards are nonporous and therefore easier to clean and safer for cutting meat and poultry. Although wooden boards have antimicrobial qualities, they are porous and bacteria can become trapped in these surfaces and do not come off easily when rinsing. Because bacteria can live in a dormant state for a long time, they can contaminate foods when you use the wooden boards at different times. Even though plastic boards contain bacteria as well, they can be more easily washed off making plastic cutting boards the better option. 2.
He goes to great lengths to research this topic to find a reason to eat meat. He does a great job supporting his opinion that we should be able to eat animals, by using narrative, compare and contrast, and exposition. Not only did his thesis recognize the problem of animal cruelty but, it also proposed a solution which strengthened his article. In the very beginning of “An Animal’s Place”, Pollan introduces the reader to a narrative, which will encompass most of his work. “The first time I opened Peter Singer’s ‘Animal Liberation,’ I was dining alone at the Palm, trying to enjoy a rib-eye steak cooked medium-rare.
