The article, “The Pleasures of Eating” by Wendell Berry talks about what people everywhere, not only in the city, can do to make their lives and food healthier and to support American farms. Farms are becoming a thing of the past in a bad way; no longer do people care where their food comes from, all they want is something quick and easy. One’s health is a major concern when it comes to food, yet people do not make the effort insuring that their food is fresh, clean and came from good healthy animals or soil. It’s for people to take a part in knowing where their food is coming from and what kind of food they are putting in their bodies. America needs to focus more on quality than quantity.
The movie, Food Inc talks about America and its unhealthy obsession with producing cheap food fast. A nation run by a select few companies is in danger of hurting themselves; no longer do these companies care about the quality of product (mostly food) that they put out there. The production of food has changed greatly in the last fifty years and the new technology helps efficiency, but the quality of what is being produced has slipped out of consumers hands into the hands of money hungry corporations.
