Pass Me a Burger

So let's be honest, we all pretty much knew that there was quite a few nasty things going on in our food industry, and you may be absolutely displeased by it.  But it is not surprising in any way as we have been told pretty much our entire lives that the food industry is bad, and that they cut corners, and are generally not good morally.  Is this information enough to make you say no when your friend asks if you ant to go to In N Out or another fast food restaurant? Probably not.  Will it persuade you to go avoid your visits to Starbucks because the dairy they use isn't free range?  Probably not.  as with a lot of shocking things these days, you are initially appalled but as you get acclimated to this get used to it and carry on with your life.  For example, the Flint Water Crisis was a big news story just last year with everyone asking why such a thing could be allowed to go on, and yet a year later,nothing has changed and now know one really cares.  You probably won't even think about your food politics paper in a week or two as bite into whatever you put in front of you.  Same with me, so if you want to eat more responsibly and are taking steps to do so, kudos.  If your not dissuaded by what you learned and continue to eat whatever you ate before, kudos to you too.  I know that I am going to be enjoying my burger.
