His delivered with such a persuasion that caused me to understand, in a deeper sense, the devastation and deaths that caused by not having a healthy food diet. Jamie delivered his presentation with power and conviction as he acknowledges that he was not an American citizen; but he loved this nation and like the audience, he had children that should know the facts about food choices and how it affects longevity.

I read an interesting book that left me thinking of the way I shop and I don’t mean the way I shop at clothing stores I mean the way I shop for groceries, it also left me thinking of the food that I’ve been eating and even the food that I order when I go to fast food restaurants. This book is “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” it pictures the reality in the food business, but in a different funny way to understand it better. The book even makes you think of how important food is in life and it can also make you see a new way of looking at the food that’s on your plate. Pollan’s point, the author for this book tries to make us think and realize of what we’re doing with our food, how we get it, and even if we save money with our way of buying it.

When dealing with fast food the question becomes, Where do we point the finger? The essay "Don’t Blame the Eater" written by David Zinczenko and "What You Eat Is Your Business" by Radely Balko, both explore the issue of fast food eating. The contradiction presents its-self when trying to figure out who is to blame for the health problems people face due to fast food. David Zinczenko sympathizes with kids and argue that by providing nutrition labels it will help the people make better choices, while Radely Balko stress the idea that people should take self responbilitie. Although each essay has very many strong points and were written very well "Don’t Blame the Eater" was written better than the essay "What You Eat is your Business" due to abundance of evidence and background.
“Food, Inc.” is a documentary about the production of food that many people do not know about. The purpose of the film was to bring awareness of the industrial food production hoping that viewers will make better choices when eating. It was an interesting film because it showed footages of farms, slaughterhouses and food packaging factories, things that some people might not be aware of because it is not usually covered in the news. Aristotle’s means of persuasion was used in this film to demonstrate the main points. Ethos was used throughout the film.
“In Aristotelian terms, the good leader must have ethos, pathos and logos. The ethos is his moral character, the source of his ability to persuade. The pathos is his ability to touch feelings to move people emotionally. The logos is his ability to give solid reasons for an action, to move people intellectually,” said Mortimer Adler. Many of the greatest artists use ethical, logical, and emotional appeals to prove their points.
As a senior at Patrick Henry High School (PHHS), I am greatly concerned with the inadequate fulfillment of public school children’s dietary needs and the poor quality of school lunches. The lack of the necessary components from the meals provided by the district shows the scarcity of care towards students. By purchasing local, fresh produce from San Diegan farms, the nutritional value of meals would be greatly enriched; furthermore, it would lead to a reduction of costs and an effort to prevent childhood obesity. Poor eating habits instigate the enervated physiques and well-beings of students. In order to deter from these detrimental results, support from the district is crucial.
With the article, Moss exposes the industry for their fault in the epidemic when he notes the meeting that CEOs attend on behalf of their representing companies at the start of this social issue (472-473). Moss depicts the meeting as a rare, but necessary gathering of chief executives, but alludes to the unsuccess early on. This narrative of the event shows as evidence that multiple groups within the food business recognize their fault in this epidemic. Moss explains that some companies, ready to take responsibility, wish to persuade the rest to join their efforts to make change, and that this became meet with opposition from others who felt as though society holds the blame, not providers (475-477). During this debate, the clear line between right and wrong emerges.

In the year 2010, President Barack Obama and the First Lady Michelle Obama created the “Hunger-Free Kids Act” of 2010, which has created problems among students. In the year 2012, Michelle Obama also created the “Let’s Move Campaign” in order to reduce childhood obesity, and to give students access to healthy food in their school lunches. The “Hunger-Free Kids Act” means that no student should go hungry, and the “Let’s Move Campaign” makes the lunches healthier. Unfortunately, due to the quality and quantity of the meals that the students now receive, more kids are refusing to eat school lunches, and remain hungry during school hours. Not only does this outrage students, it also infuriates parents, teachers and staff as well.
