Chipotle

Abstract: In this project I used different food wrappings to determine which wrapping will keep refrigerated apple slices the freshest. I cut 15 apple slices, and I had four different food wrappings. I wrapped three apple slices in each wrapping. I made sure each apple slice was separate from the other. I left three apple slices unwrapped to see how they reacted to not being covered. I predicted that the aluminum foil would protect and keep the apple slices the freshest. Introduction…

Fast food has made its way throughout the world in only a few decades where it started as a few hamburger and hotdog stands in Southern California. Fast food has consumed the world of all its worth and takes the money of people daily. By 2001 Americans spent $110 billion on fast food alone. One company created in 1955 by Ray Kroc is by far the largest of them all, Mcdonald’s and runs the economy today (Our History). The rock hall of famer David Lee Roth admired the companies found: “Ya know, I…

Walking the beautiful boardwalk of La Jolla will work up any appetite and while you’ll have to resist the many seaside restaurants with…

As you can tell there’s many different opinions about gestation stalls, which can make looking for sources very difficult. When researching about…
