Extra Credit Entry

 

  After watching Food, Inc., there were definitely a lot of thoughts running through my head. The film provides a summary of the industrialized food process and sheds light on various issues related to our food system. It showcases the treatment of animals, the deception by some American businesses, and the complex relationship between the federal government and big business. Personally, I was shocked by the images of how animals are treated in industrial farming. It made me question the ethics behind our food production. Additionally, the film highlighted the impact of food production on the environment, which was eye opening. Learning about the amount of bacteria in our food was definitely a bit unsettng too. The film also made me think about the role of government in regulating the food industry. It was disheartening to see how some businesses prioritize profit over the well being of consumers. The idea of food being engineered raised some concerns for me as well. It made me question the integrity and quality of the food we consume. Overall, Food, Inc. made me realize the importance of being informed about the food we eat. It's essential for us as consumers to be aware of the issues surrounding our food system and make conscious choices.

It can also lead to a distorted self image, as people tend to present their best selves online.  Cyberbullying and online harassment are other concerns, which can have a significant impact on mental well being. To navigate the impact of social media on mental health, it's important to fin...
