the same buzzing feeling. Food is different in ways including the preparation, flavor, and storage from the 1600s to the 2000s. In the 1600s, everything eaten was freshly picked and made. Any meat they had was shot and skinned from the men in the house. All dairy products came from the cows on the farm. Vegetables, crops, and fruits were made in the lands of farmers.

First, processed foods such as apple pie, frozen pizza and snack foods such as potato chips have hydrogenated oils that are sources of trans fats. Manufactures use synthetic trans fatty acids to their products to add texture and resistance to…
