In her essay “Food as Thought: Resisting the Moralization of Eating,” Mary Maxfield states, “The problem [with national health] is that our understanding of health is as based in culture as it is in fact” (444). In America today, the culture of obesity can be directly linked to poor dieting
Rhetorical Analysis of “Don’t Blame the Eater” In his essay “Don’t Blame the Eater”, David Zinczenko makes it known that fast-food is dangerous to our society and the individuals within it. His argument is quite simple; consumers are not completely to blame for their lack of health, fast-food has taken over the restaurant business and it is hard to find alternative options. Zinczenko’s presence of ethos through his many achievements, his use of pathos while talking about his childhood, and his

There are areas in America that, for miles, only have convenience stores that “rarely offer fresh fruits and vegetables” (144). Food access inequality is an ever growing gap throughout the country. It means that in some communities, fast food restaurants, like McDonald’s, are the main and easiest source of food. It also means that processed foods are cheaper and
out a great deal. Why is that? The researchers hypothesis was that Anne Arundel Community College has countless amounts of food/restaurants around the school that students may see on television commercials which intrigue them to eat the restaurants' food. Sometimes students don’t like food that they have at home enough to bring to school or they think there isn’t enough food to bring to fill them up, which makes them want to spend their money elsewhere. The researcher has conducted research in the
The sports would be the reward, and the bad grades would be the punishment. Having fun playing sports with their friend would push a child to succeed in their schoolwork even more than the constant threat of bad grades. Now, the people who think we’re better off with allowing people to play sports no matter what say that not wanting to get bad grades and punishment for achieving low grades is encouragement enough.

Woman: God’s second mistake? Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher, who regarded ‘thirst for power’ as the sole driving force of all human actions, has many a one-liners to his credit. ‘Woman was God’s second mistake’, he declared. Unmindful of the reactionary scathing criticism and shrill abuses he invited for himself, especially from the ever-irritable feminist brigade.
