In the articles “Bad Food? Tax it, and Subsidize Vegetables “ written by Mark Bittman, and “Mo Lunch Left Behind” written by Alice Waters, both are about the topic of food politics. Bittman talks abouthis idea to raise the price of unhealthy foods rather than the actual healthy foods in hopes it will decrease the rat of obesity. Waters’s article she exposes the government for funding unhealthy foods to schools for lunch, adding more oil to flame as people are trying to eat healthier but now their kids are still eating unhealthy because of the food they are being served at school.
My research topic is about growth hormones and rbgh’s in our dairy cows and beef cattle and how they might be putting our health at risk, most likely the cause of our shorter lifespan than other countries that do not use those products.
