Watching the video by Dana White I actually found it quite funny. The story behind the whole video is telling us how shit can be when cows or anyone for that matter, gets trapped into a place where they don't know yet what's going to happen until it actually does. For the last couple of weeks in class we have been watching steps 0-100 on the torturing and murdering of animals, which produce our food. We've seen many things from people throwing out little chicks because they weren't yellow enough and then there were cows who didn't deserve the pleasure of ejaculating into anything but a human hand because they didn't have enough black spots. These animals were all mistreated and mistreated close enough to the fullest extent.
We've also seen the mistreat of flowers and trees, we have seen sunflower seeds get pestisides poured over them becasue the soil will be better for these farmers after they are killed. Why not at least take these flowers out and sell them and make profit? I don't understand why everything has to be more about money in the short term for everyone thean money in the long term, maybe things would fall into different places. Maybe, just maybe.
There were pigs who were put all together then forced into a little place where they injected something into them, I have no clue what it was but it was something, then they force them onto these little ropes which I don't like seeing those pigs on, they are crying their hearts out, pigs are really fat, imagine all that fat they carry being weighed out on one leg and the pig hanging on it for a long time. They then pass them through some sort of heated room where I guess they kill them I can't really recall the exact what of their choosing of killing method, they then pass them through a machine that cuts them directly down the middle of their torso and has their intestines just hanging out ready to all fall out. That's when the pigs are being led to their next destination, where a human being will physically take everything out and go about their daily life as if nothing had happened that same day at work. They take everything out, spray sometype of thing in the pig and pass the intestines down, which I guess is something other people eat.
I wonder, if more people knew about the things that go down in those factories would they eat it more? Eat it less? Think about the cruelty when they eat it? I personally would pribably think about it but contiune to eat it, like I don't care about it unless its like something that's going to get me sick. If it satisfies me and my taste buds, and of course fills me up, I don't mind where its from.

Food # 8 Industrial Food
I think its bullshit how these so called farmers torture these animals. What happened to the image the corporate media gives us on these farmers, they come nowhere close to what they are supposed to be. i find it crazy how we can safely assume how our food is being made. You always seem to assume the more kindergarden savy storyline but when in reality its far from kindergarden. It's worst than what the Nazi's did in a sense, if u were to compare the two. They Nazi's hated Jews and therefor tortured them to get a ridiculous happy feeling. Isn't that what these so called farmers are doing? They torture these poor animals, get what they want and slain them, and they do it in the most cruel way.
Hanging poor pigs on their legs with all that weight that they carry and hear the screeches they leave and just cut them completely open. These people tease animals, making them think they are going to be "doing sex" and then neglecting them of their closes source of pleasure. You have people working in these huge factories than can actually go ab out their day chewing bubble gum and hand picking intestines, chopping off feet and single handedly killing thousands of animals, because they all play a role in the murdering of the animals, yes I said murdering, because thats what they are doing? What else would you call something like that? Imagine the human race being tortured like that, oh boy!

AIDS WALK
So yesterday I went to the AIDS walk, I remember me going before when I was much younger but not being able to finish the walk, its 6.2 miles we're talking about here! I remember cutting through all the shortcuts I could find and not even taking it serious, maybe its because it was more of a forced thing where I didn't even want to walk but someone was forcing me to do it which is why I didn't enjoy it. Yesterday was kind of different but also kind of the same, I wasn't forced to do it this time but I wanted to do it to support a good cause, to push myself and also to try to have a good time on a dreadful sunday. I ended up walking all the miles (6.2) and probably even more because these gys ended the finish line near the entrance of the park but had you walk tons of more km afterwards, so in all I think it ended up being around 7 miles, I also got to see Alicia and Beatrice which was weird because I had bumped into Alicia the day before so it was a really weird vibe. Na I'm just playing but they said the attendance was close to 700,000 people which I believe is a lot of good people doing the right thing and raising money for a really really good cause. Next objective: breast cancer??

Why is it that you guys tend to eat alone? When did this begin to occur? And is there a certain reason why you guys do it?

Food culture at home (second draft)
Recently, all of the sudden, I've been thinking about the things that I do when I get home to eat. I noticed things I didn't notice before, about how there's NEVER water in my house, so I'm always the one to fill up the gallon, but I usually am not in the mood to do that. In my freezer I contain a 2 liter bottle of what was once coca cola. I have it about half filled with ice so when I am in the mood to drink a lot of water, and have it cold quickly, I just fill that up, then I have about a 1 liter and then about half a liter, I don't know why but I just do. I realize that when I eat, I always have at least one of them filled up with me so I can have a very refreshing drink after my food.

I think that in my family we go by what the t.v says most of the time. We also go by what the doctors tell us because they are supposed to know what they are doing and tell us the right things to do concerning our health, and everything else for that matter. There are a lot of commercials that we see that we tend to fall for but then there are a lot that may seem way too good to be true for us to believe or way to fake for us to believe, which we don't. So we don't pay those commercials any mind. Usually, if an author was to give good ideas on something you would pay them mind. Especially if they are persuading you with about 500 pages of what can be either boredom or excitement.
