Food Problems In America

In this critical response to the article America’s Food Crisis and How to Fix it by Bryan Walsh. I am going to talk about how animals are being harmed and are given antibiotics to keep them from becoming sick, where the farmers put all the waste from the animals, and how people could fix it.

1. Eating plenty of fruit and veg- This was good for me to think about when my individual could eat her fruit most important in the day, as before creating the healthy plan she was not eating lot of fruit, it is very important that individuals get their five a day, this could be used when the individual is on the go instead of going to get a take away, she can go and eat some fruit which is going to fill her up as much as the take away but will be better for her health and her body, it will also give her a better nutrition to the body and also her brain for energy. This is also for her veg as well which we need to have every day.

American society has grown so accustomed to receiving their food right away and in large quantities. Only in the past few decades has factory farming come into existence that has made consuming food a non guilt-free action. What originally was a hamburger with slaughtered cow meat is now slaughtered cow meat that’s filled with harmful chemicals. Not only that, the corn that that cow was fed with is also filled with chemicals to make them grow at a faster rate to get that hamburger on a dinner plate as quickly as possible. Bryan Walsh, a staff writer for Time Magazine specializing in environmental issues discusses in his article “America’s Food Crisis” how our food is not only bad for us but dangerous as well. The word dangerous

A severe shortage of food in the United States could occur from many causes. Farms could stop growing crops and breeding animals. Some sort of bacteria could sweep through the country killing different food plants. The more important part of the shortage of food however would not be the causes, but the effects. The stance of the country's economy, the well-being of middle and lower-class families, and the quality of stores that used to sell the products would all decline greatly if an event as severe as an extreme shortage of food were to occur.

Consumers have become increasingly detached from their food as America’s food system grows larger and continues to ruin the environment. The main problem is that most consumers do not know how their consumption habits affect the ecosystem around them. Nor do they know about how their food was produced. Information about how and where the food is being produced and wasted is essential, so people can shop responsibly. Short of legislation, Americans make choices at the grocery store. It is essential for all Americans to cast in a vote with their dollars to change the way that food is produced in the United States resulting in more sustainable food being more accessible in the aisles of the grocery store for all Americans.

With the various reading this past week, I believe the government is doing enough, as much as they can to aid in the issue with food insecurity among its citizens. There are so many programs that cater to families and individuals in need. Especially women and children. Social welfare program, such as W.I.C, TANF, General Assistance, food pantries run by the government, etc. all work in efforts to eliminate food insecurities in homes across America. I believe the government is not at 100% percent responsible of the high percentage of food insecurities in America. People and families are at fault as well. I believe life is full of choices, when people do not make the right choices, or problems happen within a person life, such as losing a job or losing a loved one. This losses have high impacts at forcing families and individuals into food insecurities and tough spots in their life. The government should not be held responsible I believe for foreseen occurrences within a person’s life.

A long time ago the humans were running out of food. Yet, there was food but it was super rare to find. There was less and less food every day as people started to have wars between Continents as everyone died eating each other. In America, the only people left became “dumb as doornails” and oversized weighing four hundred pounds or more. The only people who are alive have access to the most advanced technology. A very smart man came along who is much smarter than a man who is as “dumb as a doornail.” The population of America is dying since there is a shortage of food. So they made food out of the fat unhealthy Americans to turn to food. As the problem was is that the small problem food was alive. So They gave us so much land to build and

3. It's always recommended that participants only eat when they are hungry and ensure they get plenty of vitamin D from the sun.

In order for you to stay away from distractions as much as possible, it is best for you to plan your meals a week ahead. You can check out different Paleo recipes online or base your meals on sample Paleo meal plans. This way, you can prepare your foods accordingly - you can bring your homemade lunch in the office, snack on healthy fruit dices or nuts and drink a moderate serving of fresh juice. Moreover, if you are to attend a party on the weekend, set your mind on making a balanced plate and go back to your meal plan the day after the party.

Is there any other health food choices in America? This is what we need to think about when we pick our food chains. The industrial organic food chain is the best food source to feed America.

I found this exercise extremely helpful in allowing me the opportunity to eat healthy, balanced meals on a budget that wasn’t extraneous or out of bounds for a broke college student like myself. I also didn’t feel the urge to eat out because I already had everything I needed to make at home, already had a plan for what I was making, and didn’t feel the need to have a lazy night.

This family can only eat out once a week and all other meals must be cooked at home. Similar to my family, this family, to stay on budget, all meals should be prepared weekly rather than cooking or purchasing food every day. I budgeted the family’s food based on what is call a moderate-cost plan, which then allowed me to see what groceries were feasible as I scanned Target. The family is not limited to quality food because that is extremely critical, so considering that their food budget of $11,472 could be reduced. Based on what we have learned and what my categorical housing and food budget estimates, it is unlikely for a family, even with just a child, making $25,000 a year, an income just above our current poverty line, to live comfortably and without needing public

While playing the Blast-Off Game and looking at the food pyramid I realized that I really need to work on what I eat and don't be eat because just playing the game I realized doing something like this for my own meal plan would be very challenging. Overall, I did pretty well on the fruits, vegetables, and grains. However, I struggled on the protein and dairy. Even when I am at home I could eat a bowl of fruit some times it may be to much. Dairy on the other hand not so much. I may have some milk every now in then, but it is with cereal. This game showed me bad habits that I need to work on; especially, if I was to have a meal plan that is going to keep me healthy and have plenty of energy. Therefore, I really need to slow down on my fruits
