Fork

with which people eat. In modern day United States, the most common utensils regarding foodstuffs are forks, knives, and spoons. Forks have the longest, most adaptive past, changing from a simple prong or stick to the multi-pronged silverware currently in use. Forks are commonly used to transport food from the plate to the mouth, as well as hold substances still while being cut. In Rome, devices people now call “dinner-spikes” were used as the primeval forerunner to the modern fork. The spikes were used to serve food by impaling the morsels, and for transport of foods between plates or from plate to knife. Unlike modern day, Romans tended to eat food off of the blades of knives instead of off of…

Forks over Knives is effective in using scare tactics to show the harmful effects that consuming meat and dairy products has on the body, but offers the opposition a very small opportunity to defend and support their own case.

When the strategy was formed, I took the key out of the ignition and we tiptoed our way to the yard. We stabbed the remaining forks in the ground thinking that we may have just managed to acquire away with forking another yard. We began to walk back to my car as the owner of the house pulled up to their driveway. At that split…

Outside the diner, a black pickup rolled to a stop while I peered out the window at the drizzling rain, a constant in the sleepy little town of Forks. If I were honest with myself, I didn’t believe that he would show up, even after conceding to meet him at his request; however, there he was getting out of his truck, striding determinedly to the diner’s door. Shortly after the bell over the front door jingled, he stood next to my booth at the back of the diner at our appointed time. “You showed…

ideals in “Is there a Moral Case for Meat?” and a couple in the film “At the Fork” explores the morality of farming.

I viewed the Netflix Documentary Forks over Knives Tuesday after noon from 11:55-12;10 ate lunch which consisted of meat and then resumed playing at 12:53-2:30. The Forks over Knives documentary heavily tries to per sway viewers to change their diets from an animal protein based diet to an all plant product diet. I heavily disagree with this idea and feel that meats in moderation or regulated amounts can be healthy. If you choose to have the meats grilled and not fried that would be a healthier…
