A decision support system uses data from internal and/or external sources (Stair & Reynolds, 2010). Internal sources of data might include sales, inventory, or financial data. Data from external sources could include interest rates, the cost of raw material such as flours, and fuel cost. Some decision support systems also include capabilities that allow you to create a model of the factors affecting a decision (O'Brien & Marakas 2009). With the model, you can ask what-if questions by changing…

It’s important to make sure that the foods and beverages that you’re consuming, aren’t boring to your taste buds. The key to help you stick to your eating regimen is to be able to enjoy tasty foods and beverages. One of the main reasons why people can’t stick to a diet is because the foods taste bland and boring. Delicious foods are usually the foods that our bodies tend to crave. I’ve never heard anyone say, “I can’t wait to eat my bland and tasteless chicken sandwich.” It’s common…

In the Sundanese Latuka tribe in Africa, when a man wants to marry a woman of his choice, he will kidnap her. The elders of that tribe ask the girl’s father for her hand in marriage.

Food Consumption: Kill or Save the Planet? “Eating is an agricultural act,” stated Wendell Berry in his article “The Pleasure of Eating” (630). However, it is also an ecological act.

However, I believe the food stamp program needs to be reformed, showing it has high cost, fraud and is unlimited. Food stamps, also known as Supplemental Nutrition…

Food Sources of AGEs Besides being formed in the body, AGEs are also found in the foods we eat. And some of these foods may surprise you. For instance, do you love a good BBQ? BBQ meat that has been cooked just right so it’s crispy and caramelized is found by many people to be delectable. Not many will argue that heating meat and adding some form of sugar and fat to caramelize it adds flavor, but the result is the formation of AGEs. Knowing how much we love these kinds of flavors, food…

not force anyone to eat anything. Besides, any type of food can be good in moderation, and people are the ones who ultimately choose what they are going to eat. Likewise, Kelly Brownell and Marion Nestle believe that the fast food restaurants are the ones to blame for our obesity, because according to them, if we blame the victims (you, I and society as a whole) are like letting the food industry get away with a crime because for them fast food is poison.
