About Me

This blog is created to show our society behind the scenes of fast food. Many people do not realize what is in their food half of the time or where they come from as well. We do not know how healthy it is, what the animals have to go through to make the food, and if it is even safe to eat. We will break down this topic into three sections: healthiness, animal cruelty, and food safety. Enjoy!

Whats in our food?

The link below, is an article called, "Bug Heads and Rat Hairs." As I read this article it amazed me because the FDA approves of a certain amount of bugs in our food. Who knew that what we eat contains rat hair or poop? For example, lettuce has a high chance of having bugs on the leaves because the FDA does not examine every single batch of lettuce. http://www1.salon.com/health/col/roac/2000/01/14/filth_lab/index.html

  1. I wish the FDA checked every single product that I have consumed in my life. The fact that we do not have the money for the FDA to check every speck of our food, we have to cook and clean our edible items correctly and thoroughly. Some people are lazy to wash the "pre-wash" salads that they buy in the markets, since they believe it is washed correctly and serve it the way it is. They will never know if the salad's factory washed it with clean water, or something else.
