Food Inc

The message that "Food Inc." is giving me is that consumers have to see what they eat. You might think that the food you are eating good for you but it's not. . Do you know that sometimes the people that make the food clone animals? The reason why we dont know that some foods are cloned is because the industry does not want to tell you. The way that you will find out that the animal is cloned is that someone has to do reasearh.The information is not given to you; they try to hide it from you.

I really dont know if I cant stop my bad habit. I love to eat meat. That's one thing everyone knows about me. Before i saw the video I did not care about cows. I care about feeding myself. After I saw the video I was disgusted by what I saw. On the same day I went out to eat and ordered myself meat. I want to care but it's just hard for me to stop eating meat.

By 4th grade,black and lation students are on average nearly 3 years behind white and asian students.


I really dont how i feel about this statistic beacuse in some occasion it might be ture and in other it will not be ture. I think white and asian do belive that they have do to good beacuase they there family are pushing them.Black and lation are not push to do good in school and then they will start slacking off.
