Vidal states, “Commies will stop us from making everyone free, and we shall end up a race of zombies” (884).

In addition, he combines “race” along with “zombies” to create more dramatic scene, as if the whole generation can turn viral with insipid addiction drug. For example, marijuana and other addictive drugs are artificial; similarly, non-natural foods from McDonald’s also attract to many consumers. Despite the unhealthy, some addicts will careless and continue to do what they want; comparably, some people still go to McDonald’s.
The article “Junking Junk Food”, by Judith Warner, is one that explains two sides to the national obesity problem in the United States. She starts her article by talking about Sarah Palin's objections to the “Obama nanny state” which she believes is out to infringe upon the peoples right to eat whatever they please (401). Glenn Beck is also cited in her paper as objecting to the idea of government regulation. His anger over the issue includes reports of government health inspectors shutting down a 7 year old's lemonade stand (401).

Obituary for Peter Griffin Hello, today we are gathered here to share grief for our beloved Peter Griffin, who was also known as that fat guy from Family Guy who is an immature, obese, care-free, outspoken, dim-witted and a heavy drinker.

For generations kids around the world have experienced the profound disappointment of ordering Sea Monkeys, dumping the dried powder into water and watching the tiny things squiggle around, doing nothing interesting. They still sell what you, as a jaded adult, now know are nothing more than freeze dried brine shrimp. Harlod von Braunhut developed the process in 1957.
