Eating Food That Dies

"The real food is still alive - so it should eventually die" (Food Rules: Eater's Handbook 29). Food that looks like infinite shelf life will reach the American stomach more frequently than before. Their influence on contemporary America has made health problems and diseases catastrophic. Since World War II the current incidence of heart disease, cancer, obesity, diabetes has risen sharply (Food Protection 22). Today 's society does not accept the art of lost meal. Food manufacturers focus on the convenience of consumption and storage, not the natural nutritional value of food.

Death from debt. The United States and the people ruling it can compare with fat people who eat, eat and eat until he picks up his food and dies. What do you mean? If this country collapses, it is the cause, not military loss. The blue line shows US debt as a percentage of its income (GDP). That is exactly 100%. It may be okay if debt is $ 50,000 and annual income is $ 50,000, but since the US government is a bit different, most people are unaware that debt is 100% of GDP. This is the reason. A more similar way is that the company you work earns $ 50,000 a year, has $ 50,000 debt, spends $ 11,111 a year, and earns only 8,333 dollars a year It is that. How did it come? GDP is about 18 trillion dollars. The government brought about 3 trillion dollars and spent about 4 trillion dollars. 4/18 = 2/9. 2/9 times $ 50,000, for example $ 11,111

First, because food production is abundant, food producers have the motivation to make more delicious food and persuade us to eat it. The food industry accounts for about 8 trillion dollars, about 6% to 10% of the world economy. This is a very large amount of money to promote advertisements and cultural customs. Secondly, in the fast food business, by raising the price per serving, we actively prevent the purchase of small amounts of food. In many shops, you can earn more calories by paying a small "upgrade". This is effective because bulk purchases are also discounted at stores. However, large quantities may be too useless.

Those who eat regularly (more than three times a week) consume a large amount of food (called a carnival) in a short period of time. I feel that people with binge eating often are embarrassed to eat food. They may hide food for the carnival. People with this disease often promise to eat without success or to stop eating so much. They feel that they can not control the urge to keep eating a lot of food. As a result, they tend to be overweight or obese. People with anorexia nervosa are obsessed with thinness. They do not want to eat, they are afraid of weight gain. They often worry about how much calories they consume or how much fat they have on their food. They may take diet pills, laxatives or water pills to lose weight. They may exercise too much. People with anorexia usually think that they are fat, even though they are very thin. They may be very thin, and it seems that they are sick.
