Remember to incorporate into your assessment, information from at least two of the articles and essays you have read, at least two of the documentaries or other films you have screened, and any personal reading or research you have done to date.
Keep in the back of your mind:
How are these messages in line with yours or totally different?
Do you think anyone in any of these films or essays has a strong point?
Is there something you saw or read you would like to incorporate into your beliefs or action?
The way we eat reflects the way we treat and regard animals. You can write about human dependency on animals for food. You may even consider the unhealthy consumption of junk food: we eat cows and their cheese (hamburgers and cheese burgers); cows give us high cholesterol. But the liver makes all the cholesterol the human body needs — some livers make too much — so do we really need cow cholesterol?
It’s not just great tasting hamburgers that taunt us. It is so difficult to eat a diet full of fresh produce. Whole Foods and Ralph’s are two of the most expensive stores in the world. Northgate AND Trader Joe’s have very little organic food. Food4Less . . . well, let’s not even go there (literally). Even the stores with prices in between charge “a grip” for whole fresh food. You can get 20 packs of Top Ramen (2.00) for the price of one bunch of kale (1.99).
Trying to eat right is a pain. But, eat right we must.
How do you navigate the headache of not enough money to even afford the things you want to eat, forget about the things you know you should eat?
Describe your relationship with food. What about your attempt to eat a wholesome diet, incorporating whole foods (fruits and vegetables), healthy meats, and good, nutritious snacks (yeah, right) — how is that working out for you?
What is your definition of health and wellbeing? What do you consider a wholesome diet? How do you maintain, sustain, or completely fail at eating right and staying well? What are some of the challenges of life’s pace and your attempt to stay functional?
Or, you can take a look at the bigger picture. What is going on between human being and alleged food? What of our dependency on corporate food? How is the world (and or you) responding to the current food crises in US cities?
You may construct a narrative written from your point of view. Remember, however, synthesis is key to a strong essay. Take the information from the films and readings and bring it together with your personal beliefs and practices in some rational, reasoned way.
