Doritos

well these games are ten times worse. We’re spread out pretty well around the field. I’m taking cover behind on a bunker on the center in the very back covering my teammates from all sides. Calling out the position of the enemy team. “Dorito two! 50 Snake! Dorito two on me!” Game is going by smoothly so I think. I see one of my teammates over to my right signaling me to move up. I do as I was told. See a neon green shoe popping out on one of the bunkers to my left. “You’re out!” shouts the ref.…

On a scale of one to ten, I’d be a ten. However, in this case, ten being last. When I was younger, I’d be last at almost everything, I was last in the batting order for all my little league baseball games, last to finish my food at the table, last to get ready for school, I was last at almost everything.

As of September 2016, over 260 million Americans have consumed at least 1 bag of potato chips. This means that at least 24375 tons of chips have been eaten in the past year. However, that calculation would only be true if each bag contained at minimum its labeled amount. When opening a bag of chips, it is easy to assume that the labeled amount is false due to the amount of empty space inside.

Promoting Obesity Advertisements are everywhere, and when it comes to food, food has a heavy influence on what people eat especially when junk food is the most influential. Unhealthy eating choices are what America is suffering from and commercials are playing a pivotal role in that. Both adults and children watch TV, but food marketers make the most money off of children because they are easy targets to advertise to. Television is not the only source of food advertisement since the internet…

The growth and maintenance of our body are possible because of nutrients and energy we obtain when we eat. Nowadays, many people in the world are getting sick with food related diseases. This is happening because the quality of what we are eating is not adequate. With the development of new technologies in the last years, processed foods…

In Matthew Derby 's 2003 novel, Super Flat Times, the characters presented express a possible outcome of a society which has been so effected by technology that the most raw aspects of life, such as food, sex, and death, are trivialized and changed to be nearly unrecognizable to the reader.

Couples are emotionless towards each other, and parents are incapable of…

Pants in the United States refers to bottoms we wear, and in Europe pants means underwear. If you order an entrée in Australia you are really ordering an appetizer, but if you order an entrée in…
