eating habits. (serious blog)
Published May. 29, 2008
Hey Guys and Gals, since the EOGs are over for most teachers, we are trying to maintain order and simulate classwork being done in our rooms until June 10th. So my seventh grade team elected to read this book to our students entitled Chew on This. We are also doing various activities that tie into the book. This book basically slams the fast food industry (McDonald's in particular) for making us all obese and putting fast food joints as the center of our health issues. My students have been grossed out by what they have read and heard us say. It is truely enough to make one turn vegetarian, though not likely for this 34 yr old. I am currently doing a survey with my students to see what fast food places they prefer and the types of foods they like. How many of you eat out a lot? (meaning at least 3 times a week?) I do not because of my diabetes now but I can remember a time when I did. This book goes into how food is prepared and how the industry strives to influence youth into eating fast food. What is your take on this? I knew a single parent who went out to eat every night. That is what the student told me. I couldnt believe this. So my friends on here, could you deny fast food?
