Pollen's purpose for introducing steer 534 was to track the health of the cow and how it is being raised in the fields. I know this because the text states " When I visited the ground was covered with a thick coat of yellow and gold grass" What this proves is that all that the cows ate was corn and the cows natural diet was no longer consistent. The text also states''

Why steer 534?
Pollan's purpose for introducing steer 534 was to inform the reader about the way cows are being treated. In my opinion I think he is trying to persuade readers in a way as well. I think that he tries to persuade readers that cows should stick to their old fashioned natural diet which consisted of hay or grass. However since corn is pushing aside the needs of other animals and crops, cows are forced to eat corn 24/7.
Dr mexican
I ate today chicken with hot sauce and rice also tortilla. And i couldnt stop drinking water odee cuz my mom puts alot of hot sauce. And then i went to my appointment and went in a Restaurant. In the Restaurant i ate soft tacos with gucamole. Then i got home and i had chips so then i ate chips with salt and vinegar chips.

Michael pollen wrote like a short little passage about his steer which is a cattle named 534. When pollan wrote this he must of had a purpose. I think that purpose was to give us more information about the industrial food chain and how they don't treat the cattles right and how the cattles including Pollans cattle of 534 went from good fields and stream waters to the them never having that good life again and them being taken away from that. I know that they had the good way of living before they got taken because "In November,when I visited,the ground was covered with a thick coat of yellow and gold grass. Sprinkled across the fields were moving black dots: Angus cows and calves,grazing". This at first to me tells me how good the cows had it. Then from that to " yet,after a few months at poky my steer will never have the opportunity to eat green grass again".pollan showed us that he knows what the food chain is like because he saw it and went through it for himself and how where his steer was taken was not better then where his steer was at. He basically wanted to inform us more not only about things he know but things he had been through himself.

the things we eat cow edition
The author introduced steer #534 because e wised to sow us how cows are being affected by telephone corn they are being forced to consume. Wichita in tern will affect us.

Steer #534 ~ Dr. Flores
Steer #534 was introduced to show the point that cows was treated unfairly and was forced to eat corn instead of grass. These forced changes affects the health of the cattle. The author introduce steer #534 to show how the cattle was treated unfairly and it affects its health and our healths as well. It states on page 50 that "...534 is the product of artificial insemination". This is showing that steer 534 isn't naturally breed or fed but its being unnaturally breed or fed. It states "Yet, after a few months at Poky my steer will never have the opporunity to eat green grass again". The author introduces steer #534 because the author wanted to show the industrial food chain is having a negative impact due to the mistreatment of cattle. These mistreatments can affect our health and the cattle health and freedom.
Michael Pollan's Purpose of Introducing Steer #534
Author's Purpose of Introducing Steer #534
The author's purpose of introducing Steer #534 was simple; he wanted to follow the journey of the Industrial Food Chain in a deep, accurate way. By following Steer #534 through this process, he and the readers will get a better understanding of what's going on for the cows from the beginning until they turn into beef for us. By getting data from one specific cow, he can track it and draw valid conclusions, rather than examining random cows and getting insufficient, unreliable data. He introduces Steer #534 to us so we can try to understand and depict the image of a cow's life in a Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation, and how it contrasts to life in a small farm. He explains to us the process of what happens after the steer's birth, how their food habits changes along with the environment, and then its effect on the animal as a result. By providing specific information such as this, the author informs us about the Industrial Food Chain in a more specific, authentic way, instead of just simple analysis from undetailed observations that wouldn't be credible. In a way he also persuades us to side with the negatives too, providing sad, bitter details about the cow's life, ending the section by saying, "Yet after a few months at Poky my steer will never have the opportunity to eat green grass again." Pretty inhumane if you ask me.
Pollans's purpose
What was Pollan’s purpose for introducing steer 534?
Pollan's purpose for introducing steer 534 is how cow-calf are treated nice and fed well with grass and thier mothers milk until six months later they are taken and treated like regular cows and then reflecting on his steer saying it will never have an opertuninity to eat Grass.
Dr.Manyamu: STEER#534
The author include information about his cow to show how their ate raised and affected by the Industrial food chain. It shows readers that at farms like poky that where cows don't get abuse. When cows are able to eat grass their able to help it grow where's they can't do that at CAFO.
There 32 pounds of feed and 25 pounds of corn are given to the cows. People started to get sick because the cow weren't giving a healthy diet. He concluded by telling us cattle are use to turn corn into beef
What's The Purpose?
I think Pollan's purpose for introducing us to Steer 534 was to show us an inside look on what goes on in the place that they force the cows to eat corn instead of grass so we would think something along the lines of, "Wow, that's just wrong. Someone should do something about this." Or something like that. I think he introduced us to this cow also so we would feel something for it instead of explaining what goes on in general, he goes deeper and paints a picture of the life of one cow.
Steer 534: The purpose
Michael Pollen's purpose for introducing Steer 534 was to give an example of how cows are being treated just so that people could get the best meat. Cows were being fed artificial food just so that the cow could create the best product. The only food the cows ate were corn. Even though the main thing they were supposed to eat, they were only allowed to eat corn so that they can make the best kind of product. The text states, "Like all beef cattle, 534 is the product of artificial insemination" (Pg 50, paragraph 3) Michael Pollen wanted to show us, the readers, that Steer 534, like all the other cows, were fed food that they weren't supposed to eat so that they can make artificial products. Another quote the text states is, "Yet, after a few months at Porky my steer will never have the opportunity to eat green grass again." (Pg 50, paragraph 5) Michael Pollen's purpose for introducing Steer 534 was to show the readers that the cows are not being cared for properly because the corn is not doing anything good for the cows and for the people who eat it: US!!!!!
Dr. Valoy With Pallan's Purpose For Introducing "Steer 534"
Pollan's purpose for introducing steer 534 was to later explain the relationship between the cows and grass. In this section, he talks about a cow that eats grass. He mentioned that this is the first stage of a hamburger. Before we eat burgers, cows are graving through a field eating grass. Therefore, the purpose of this section is to introduce the relationship between cows and grass.
Steer 534: Why?
Pollan’s purpose for introducing steer 534 was to show a cow that was a product of artificial insemination. He showed the life of that cow since he was born and all the food it was eating. It showed the life of that cow with the mother but never meeting the father of that cow. He includes all of this information to teach us what is happening with these cows and animals and how they are living with their environment.
what was Pollan's purpose for introducing 534?
Pollan's purpose for introducing steer 534 is to show how he got the information about cow's. By buying steer number 534 the author was able to track steer 534 and see his journey. When 534 is born in an independently owned ranch alongside his mother. After six months 534 was branded and castrated.
Tuesday: There are Consequences
Some consequences from the industrial food chain is that the government and other companies charge farmers the right to grow their crops. This is unfair because farmers go through many challenges and having to be forced to pay to do their job. This is crazy because just like people barely work for free, why pay to work? Also, farmers started to care about the quantity than quality. What I mean about this is that how good they made the corn no longer mattered it was how much money they expected to get out of it.
OREOS
What Do Oreos Contain?
Oreos are a very popular snack eaten by many people, Oreos are a brand of a chocolate sandwhich
cookie with a creamy white filling. The Oreo ingredients contain corn syrup and cornstarch. Havent you ever wondered how could the vegetable corn we eat be transfered to such a delicous sweet cookie / snack we eat. I believe the corn started off being grown in the corn fields then made into a liquid to be mixed with the other ingredients which is making the oreos we enjoy.
D.R MEXICAN
Chapter 3 is about that in the old days they used to do everytjing on hand but know this day we use eletronics. Also know this days the corn is really alot of money but before it was less because there were not alpt of work as know. The farmers had rich fields but they were poor because they didnt have the idea to sell there things which are crops .
Dr.Rivera
The industrial food chain. Its large and mass work load is amazing to some people. We believe that this food chain is benefitial and has no problems but this isnt always true. In the industrial food chain there are also many negative effects to nature and humans as well. In the book this diagram showed up.
This photo discussed something very important. When food is being processed a whole bunch of chemicals are mixed in and its lack of energy is a result. We focus of growing transporting and processing that when its the actual food itself it has low amount of energy. Also, another issue of using hybrid seeds GMOs gases as fertilizers. All of these exploit the fun and the money from the farmers. In the book on page 31 it stated "Farming was no longer an ecologial loop-it was more like a factory. The farmer brought raw materials (seed and fertilizer) and turned it into a finished product-corn." These is describing an dillustrating how due to these new chemicals fertlizer it taken out the natural process of farming. These new chemicals and fertilizer is also causing most farmers to lose a lot of money because the expensive for the raw materials are really high. In the industrial food chain a lot of negtaive impacts are happening because of the new innovations form processing corn and also from expensives are affecting our health and the lives of farmers as well.
Dr.udo unvented consequences
By changing the genes in some crops such as corn and just feeding cattle corn have negative repercussions. It can make cattle sick and since we eat this cattle we to can become sick as well. This proves that changing things in nature can affect a society in a negative way . Also lots of farmers do not believe in this GMO experiment they believe that GMO is a reckless experiment with the nature order of things. What this shows is that we are not sure what affect this product can have on our everyday lives.
Chapter 3: Industrial Food Chain
Based on chapter 3 in the Omnivore's Dilemma, I know there are some unintended consequences caused by the industrial food chain. The industrial food chain has caused many issues such as global warming and consuming too much energy. These effects are consequential for us people as a community because all the industrial food chain is doing is making the issues that are already well known and serious even stronger and more of a threat for us. The simple production of corn could devastate humans.

The Repercussions of the Industrial Food Chain
The Unintended Outputs of The Industrial Food Chain
We all have heard about the industrial food chain. It's the process of how from a single crop grown in a large vast field is then transformed into foods you eat at restaurants and fast food outlets. This food chain may seem like an efficient, cost-saving, time effective technique to create the foods we want in desirable ways, benefiting both the supplier and consumer- but are there indirect consequences?
Many environmental and economic problems can derive from this food chain. When making corn, the industrial food chain is using up more energy than it is producing. And since making corn is in more ways expensive than actually buying it, farmers are suffering to receive decent incomes and the money they deserve. Not to forget, that the making of corn also produces nitrogen pollution. Farmers feed corn more nitrogen than what is actually needs to "play it safe" and not lose money they could have earned. The unnecessary nitrogen then can evaporate to the air which can create acid rain. Some of it can even turn into nitrous oxide, a gas that increases global warming. When the nitrogen seeps into the ground, it is unsafe for humans to consume it- so farmers have to take extra precautions when going drinking water from underground resources. And not much is taken to address these issues because ironically big agribusiness corporations- the ones most benefited from this production- helped write the very laws that set farm policies. Farm policies that farmers are fed up with, because it makes them poor, and leads way to the pollution that is killing us today. Awesome, isn't it? Seems like we're the armies supporting the spread of corn to dominate us all over the world. The naive ones- that is.
Dr. Valoy With The Consequences Of The Industrial Food Chain.
Based on chapter 3, some unintended consequences from the industrial food chain is global warming. "The Omnivores Dilemma" states, "Some of it evaporates into the air, where it creates acid rain". This shows how some farmers may not expect that the man-made nitrogen that the corn does not take up can cause global warming. " The Omnivores Dilemma" also states,"Some of it turns into nitrous oxide, a gas that increases global warming". This demonstrates how some of the man-made nitrogen that's not used will turn into a gas that increases global warming. Therefore, an unintended consequence of the industrial food chain is global warming because a lot of corn is grown in one field and the man-made nitrogen that's not used in the corn will turn into a gas that increases global warming.

| This is a corn field and some of the corn may not uses all the man-made nitrogen, which will turn into gas that can increase global warming. |
Tatiana blog post on chapter 3
February,24,2015
Based on what I have read in chapter 3 in Omnivores Dilemma there are some consequences from the industrial food chain. There were some consequences of the farmers having to use a whole lot of the energy that made some farms Loss proposition. "Industrial farm is using up more energy than it is producing. This is opposite of what happened before chemical fertilizers". This is one of the consequence that they had to face. Another problem is the things the farmers are using are hurting the earth. The nitrogen is polluting the earth and "some of it turns into nitrous oxide,a gas that increases global warming," this tells me how the things they use in the corn is not only healthy for the corn but it's not healthy for the earth. There are plenty more situations that these farmers have to and had to face but those two are the ones that suck out to me the most in chapter three to show some of the consequences from the industrial food chain.
Tatiana(Yoohoo)

I picked the popular drink that many of us and our young siblings or young one or maybe even ourselves drink of Yoohoo to talk about today. The chocolate drink Yoohoo has the ingredient of corn syrup in it. Now there's are many ways that the corn could of got in this very popular drink but I have one way which i think might of happened. The way I think corn may have made its way from the field to our Yoohoo drink is by the corn being grown first with all those chemicals,fertilizer,and nitrogen. Then the corn gets bought form many companies including the Yoohoo company and they turn it into what they need to make the Yoohoo. There are many other foods that have the ingredient of corn but I chose Yoohoo.
Industrial Food Train: Not Always The Best Choice
The Industrial Food Chain is not what it always seems. These things come with many consequences and problems. Farmers are losing their money on buying seeds that they used to make themselves. These seeds aren't even natural. These seeds are mutated and contains chemicals which can be harmful. Farmers state how these companies are messing with the natural order and nature. This can also have farmers out of business and people in danger with their foods. Lets just think about our foods before eating. ;)
Dr.Wright's Reports About Chapter 3
In chapter 3 of "The Omnivore's Dilemma" Micheal Pollan talks about farmers ways of making their vegetables.What Micheal reveals is that the farmers add nitrogen which is in the fertilizer.They put chemical fertilizer on Hybrid corn.Also the author says that Nitrogen is also the reason for global warming.So basically the farmers put chemicals in our vegetables.
2/24/15- Consequences of Industrial Food Chain
Some of the consequences of the industrial food chain as explained in the book, is the fact that the companies providing the fertilziers, seeds, etc for farmers are raising their prices to the point that it is very hard for the farmers to get what they need and if they try to farm the "traditional old fashion way" they will not make enough corn/crops which means no income for them, which is what they use to clothe themselves and feed themselves. Another consequence of the industrial food chain is that some companies want to "own" corn so the farmers have to ask them first before planting it.
Which is sort of rediculous and will lead to issues because those companies wanting to literally own the crop wouldn't be able to keep track of all those farms all at once.
Which is sort of rediculous and will lead to issues because those companies wanting to literally own the crop wouldn't be able to keep track of all those farms all at once.
Dr.Manyamu: unintended outputs
After reading chapter 3 of The Omnivore's Dilemma I now know that that some things occur that shouldn't. On page 29 it states once the weapons plant in Alabama was not need for they started using it for chemical fertilizer. Framers could now go and buy nitrogen. But this nitrogen was bad for the environment. It caused pollution. In the Industrial food chain the big business were getting a profit where's the farmers were losing money. On page 35 it states "it cost him about $2.50 to grow a bushel of corn ... But that year the price the grain elevator co-op paid for a bushel of corn was only about $1.45. As farms grew more corn the price for corn falls. The farm policy didn't help farms instead it help larger industrial farms, agribusiness, and food companies like McDonald's.

Dominican Food
Me and my family are from Dominican Republic and we eat mangu, sancocho asopou. My family mostly eats mangu con lo trie corpe. I dont know why we just like it the most out of everthing. When I get hoe we usually eat arroz con habichual y carne.
My ancestors haven't changed because we still eat the same thing
I believe that Americans do not still have traditional because McDonalds, Burger King, and Checkers are not traditional foods.
some people might say that americans do still have traditional foods, however they are wrong because fast food resturant are not traditional.

FOOD TRADITIONS
My family is Dominican and we have many food traditions such as eating sancocho, asopao, and mangu. In my family we sit down and eat together as a family, whether is during breakfast, lunch, or dinner. My family has strong food traditions since being able to eat traditional foods as a whole family is very important to us. Now i honestly eat less traditional foods and barely sit down with my family to eat together and have a good time during either breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Now i'll usually eat a hamburger and fries at mcdonald's and quickly move on and go on with my life. I 100% believe that modern Americans don't have strong food traditions and there many reasons why. modern American families don't have such strong food traditions since they find it easier to eat a burger with fries than to go home and cook for the whole family. I understand that even though people eat a lot of fast food their many that think were still going by our traditions when it comes to food however people just don't want to go home after work and start cooking when they can just with five dollars maybe less buy a full meal at mcdonald's.
Toni's Food Traditions
The claim was that food traditions were changed over time. I dont disagree with that opinion , however, i do not agree with it. I believe that the food itself has not been changed but the variety of food has.
I come from a Hispanic background infused with an Italian background. What i eat now compared to what my great grandparents and grandparents ate/ eat are fairly similar. Within my Hispanic culture a regular day meal is rice beans and maybe a certain meat. Or fish. Since i have some Italian background , often families switch up dishes. For example, one day i would have rice, beans and chicken but the next day i would have a classic spaghetti and meatball meal. Which anyone would know shows the Italian side. If you didn't , most pasta dishes comes from Italy.
What i eat today is practically the same thing. I still eat rice, beans and chicken or sometimes fish. My mother does often switch up the meals . I also do have a greater variety than my grandparents and great grandparents due to fast foods created over time .
Just because i have a greater variety doesn't mean that the food traditions changed. I still eat traditional meals . On certain occations I would eat otherwise. Plus some fast foods are just mixed traditions in one meal.
In conclusion, i eat almost the same meals as my ancestors ate before except for the fact that fast food companies were made. Therefore i believe that the food traditions itself has not changed over time but the variety of the food has.

How Many Things Have You Dipped In Corn?
The True Facts Of Ketchup...
Have you ever thought of how many things you dip in ketchup or use with ketchup? Chicken nuggets, fries, chicken strips, eggs, hashbrowns, burgers, hot dogs, etc. This one wonderful thing that many people enjoy as a sauce contains a plant that is taking over all foods: corn. Ketchup contains corn syrup meaning we are consuming fattening contents that could possibly make us obese. Trying to eat a food that is enjoyable, healthy and does not contain corn is almost impossible because of its increasing popularity in our favorite treats. The inevitable is arriving and it is becoming more and more difficult to resist the tempting corn ingredient.
Dipped in Corn to Our Mouths: French Fries
The Surprising Discovery about French Fries
Something shocked me today while I was looking for foods that contained some form of corn on it. If you know me, you know that I love french fries. I really do. Yet, of course, it was victim to the rule of corn, one of the largest food domination that's taking over the world, and- apparently our bodies. Though, not a direct ingredient of french fries, these potato strings are cooked in vegetable oil containing corn.
"In fact, corn oil is the most popular frying oil used for cooking french fries at major fast food outlets. Researchers found that 69% of national fast food restaurant chains serve french fries containing corn oil, compared to only 20% of small-business restaurants."
http://www.webmd.com/diet/20100119/corn-oil-used-most-often-french-fries
I was mind-blown. One of my favorite foods had to succumb to the power of corn. And let me just tell you- it is what the name says- corn oil is made purely of corn. So what we're basically eating are fried potato strings latched with grains of corns melted on the outside of it. Very interesting- and yet weird at the same time.
So, I can infer that since many fast food restaurants use this oil to make the french fries, it's safe to assume that the ingredients came from the industrial food chain. The chain starts in a giant field, usually in the Midwest, where one type of crop is grown- such as corn- and ends up in a supermarket or fast-food outlet. Since many businesses want to earn profit and get corn that's tastier, more better, and less cheaper, they most likely buy the hybrid corns or the ones that are genetically modified. I mean hey- do you see McDonald saying that their french fries are "organic?" If they are, tell me, I'm going to buy me some french-fries tomorrow. Let's face it, corn infested or not- we're sill going to love these addicting, delicious potato strings for years to come.
Dr. Valoy With The Interesting Truth
Apparently, there is something that's surprising, but I think some of you already knew about it. Do you know how many soft drinks contain high-fructose corn syrup? Well, fruit punch contains this ingredient and I wonder if it affects the taste of it.
First, lets go way back to how corn is grown. According to "The Omnivore's Dilemma", there are four different food chains. The different food chains are Industrial, which is when a single crop that is grown in a giant field, Industrial Organic, which is similar to Industrial, but grown with natural fertilizer, Local Sustainable, which is grown locally on farms and Hunter-Gatherer, which is hunting for food. These can be different ways to grow corn. On farms, they can breed corn for specific traits that can help them grow. Then, there were scientists who added genes in the DNA of corn. Some farmers didn't agree to this most likely because it wasn't natural. So it's cool how this kind of corn can be in soft drinks, such as fruit punch, and we don't taste it.
Many other drinks and foods contain this ingredient, but you usually don't taste that specific ingredient directly. Maybe corn syrup does affect the taste of drinks that we usually drink.

Cup a soup ~ Dr. Flores
So I ate some cup of soup again like always. I love soup, especially chicken flavor cup a soup. Ramen is the best. And it has corn which is obviously because their is vegetables in the soup and in the pictures below it shows the type of cup of soup and of course the ingredients. The soup tasted delicious but I also wanted to address the question as well. Corn came from either hybrid seeds or breed corn seeds which give time and the proper method of growing the crops then its starts to be fertilized or takes out. When its being processed its chemicalized and changed in order to mixed with the other chemicals and ingredients so that the flavor will come out well. But in my soup bits of corn that was dried out and put into these cups filled with dried noddles and other dried vegetables. But when you put water and put it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes; it tastes delicious.
P.S. I burned my tongue when i was eating soup so be extra careful . It tastes delicious but burns so much it's painful.
Dr.Estrada: Corn Food
