“Sweet, Sour, and Resentful” In this story, Dumas tells Gourmet magazine how her mother prepares a Persian feast weekly for a great number of people. She tells how her mother is bitter about cooking every week for so many people and in a small place. The family had moved to the states before their friends and family, so they were called on to help adapt when they moved to the area. That’s when the weekly meals started. Dumas stated, “Displaying the hospitality that Iranians so cherish, my father extended a dinner invitation to everyone who called”(321).
This article is about Anna Stoessinger, a very fast eater than hardly chews her food. Anna and her husband have been known to use their own rent money to buy expensive, tasting food off of Jean George’s menu. She has always planned her vacation around restaurants because of her extraordinary love for the taste of food until one day; she had discovered that she had stomach cancer. From then on, she was always thinking about the possibility of dying because that would mean she would leave her loving husband too soon. She later learned that her surgeon was going to permanently remove her stomach and parts of her esophagus which only meant that she would be only allowed to eat small meals while consuming it very slowly and deliberately.
This responsibility also needs to be the leading factor in the lawsuits that are being filed against fast food companies because of childhood obesity. We are all aware of the health risks associated with eating these kind of meals and although children are left with little choice at times as to what to prepare themselves for breakfast, lunch or dinner, there are healthier alternatives for preparing meals which are also cheaper to purchase than fast food. With all the information available on the Internet, brochures at fast food restaurants and other nutrition tips at these establishments we need to hold ourselves responsible for our health and stop blaming the fast food
Then, she discovered the Food Network. The beautiful Giada, the hilarious Paula, and the refined Ina were her cooking instructors. She was able to see food being lovingly prepared. Not watching an assembly line of one slice of Spam, one pineapple slice, one thick slice of Velveeta cheese product slapped together and thrown in the oven. That was a once a week dinner as she was growing up.

While some argued that it is the fault of food industries, and for some, fault of consumers, it can easily be resolved with two words: self-responsibility. Therefore, consumers are definitely the ones responsible for the current epidemic in this country. The first reason why consumers are responsible for America’s obesity epidemic is because consumers are the ones that choose what to eat and feed their children. There are many alternatives to fast food but most people rather not take their time to prepare for a healthier meal. In “The Battle against Fast Food Begins in Home”, author Daniel Weibtraub tries to convince parents to take a stand and fend off obesity in their homes.
Kiara Edwards 8/1/2010 Human Nutrition Test Essay 2 Does anyone really know what we are eating? After viewing the documentary Food Inc I have a totally different outlook on the food that many of us consume every day. My daughter, Kiryana my niece, Samya and nephew Xavier watched the video with me they had so many questions ranging from what are they doing to the chickens, why are they hurting the baby chicks, to comments such as auntie I don’t think I want to eat chicken anymore. The Food Inc documentary introduced many people to America’s industrialized food system and its effect on our environment, health, economy and workers' rights.

Sabrina Madrid Professor Vazquez English 101 23 February 2012 What’s Underneath The Veil Prior to viewing the documentary Food, Inc. I had no previous knowledge of the food that I was consuming may be bad for me. Not just bad for me health wise, but bad for the economy and bad for the society in general. After watching the documentary I had a reality check as to what is being done in the food industry as a whole and what us as consumers can do about it. I strongly believe Food, Inc. has a clear message behind it and everyone in America should see the documentary.
Observation Having spent the last 8 years of my career progressing through the ranks in technical position, I was asked to move into Project lead position. This looked unattainable especially when you consider that not many organisations consider giving trainings to bring out the managerial talents of their technical staff. Within a short period of 1 month, the results were evident. One such event is where the team dissented when I tried to enforce daily status reports. I started realizing that the communication between my team has become limited and strained.
Also I forgot to mention we have these appetizers which are called empanadas which is like a tortilla with meat on the inside and fried, which most people love here in America. So as you can see we love our food and do go all out when we do get together and it shows in our food because we all have a good time and enjoy making our dishes and sharing it amongst families. You can also go to the little restaurants we have in the inner city but nothing taste like your mom’s cooking and I for sure do try to grasp that tradition from my mom and enjoy cooking as for every family as their own way of doing things but all taste almost the same and keeping it alive within my family is important to
