Fudge with the Vision

Before we started on this unit, I already had known a bit about the problems with our food system, but I never really paid any real attention to them. I knew that they were serious, but I didn't have the extensive knowledge or even the care to know what was up. I simply accepted it as how it was. However, over the past few weeks, I've come to learn and see a great more deal of things that essentially woke me up to what we're living under, and I'm glad that I was able to. Whether about the shadiness of the meatpacking industry to feeding those in need or to the shameful ignorance from our government, I've learned that the issues surrounding food are something that should be much more emphasized than they currently are.

If I could go back four years and start again with this knowledge, I would. My diet back then wasn't really a healthy one, so it would have gotten me to watch what I ate from an earlier age. While I certainly can't travel back in time to do so, I can better the futures of others by spreading the knowledge of healthy dieting and mindful eating to younger siblings, friends, and anyone else who may need it. Spreading this vision of a better future with our food is something everyone should partake in; it only takes a little effort to do it.
