Hw #12

Thesis: Many of the dominant social practices in our society - practices that define a "normal" life - on further investigation turn out to involve nightmares and industrial atrocities. Argument 1: Most people aren’t informed about the nightmarish atrocities that happen behind “the kitchen.” And this is normal, so we continue to eat these foods on our plates because it is a normal social practice. Supporting Claim 1: Much of what we are uninformed about is being kept hidden by the mass production companies.

Evidence: What goes on in the feedlots

Evidence: Animals and workers are mistreated

Evidence: What is put into our food

Evidence: Over production

Supporting Claim 2: Companies do not care about the consumer; it is all about the business. Business = money.

Evidence: Organic now government owned word

Evidence: No interest in if food is healthy but in selling it

Evidence: Whole foods

Not done.. evidence is almost done
