Part II. Food & HOW

Word: Evitable- In a format that can be edited by the user (New Oxford American Dictionary)

Term: Industrialization- The act of developing industries on a wide scale

Book: Hungry Planet: What the World Eats

“The Industrialization- and dehumanization- of American animal farming is a relatively new, evitable, and local phenomenon: no other country raises its food animals quite as intensively or as brutally as we do. Were the walls of our meat industry to become transparent, literally or even figuratively, we would not long continue to do it this way” (pg 163, Essay by Michael Pollan published 2002).

Children with Type 2 Diabetes, “are the victims of a society that does not seem to care, of an economic structure that makes it cheaper t eat fries than fruit, of the food industry and the mass media luring them to consume what they shouldn’t” (pg. 243 Essay by Francine R. Kaufman, M.D. author of Diabesity, a call to action against he dangers of Diabetes)

KFC is located in 30 countries: 4 North American Countries, 10 European countries, 14 Asian countries, Australia and New Zealand.

Do you choose what you wear or eat, or does the media choose for you?

Do you care?

Do you have time to care?
