michael's claim pg 240-245 by dr.Compres
Michael claims that what a hunter does is not for the the weak willed. "hunters ought to be aware of the seriousness of what they are doing and never treat it lightly". this shows how Michael believes a hunters job is a hard one and should not be glanced over that it should be respected."i looked from the dead, bloody pig to the big, happy grin on the man's face-my face. then I hurried my mouse to the corner of the image and clicked, closing it as quickly as I could. what could I have possibly been thinking? what was I so damned proud of anyway? suddenly I felt ashamed."
this quote shows how you could be so proud of what you had dun but the next disgusted.
in these pages Michael depicts the true nature of the hunter gatherer life style. it is not one of happiness and triumph, but one that takes great courage and an understanding of what you have done.
The food chain that I would fee is local sustainable because it's healthy and organic for people in the society. These had no pesticides or chemicals in their food and were better to eat then the other food chains. It's also good for your stomach and it didn't get people to not like that and also they know what's in their food before they buy it.

My Choice For The Best
My Decision
Hunter Gatherer ~ Dr. Flores
Dr.Manyamu: What will I want to eat?
The omnivores dilemma is a book that present the reader with different food chain and how they affect us and the environment. You have the industrial food chain, industrial organic food chain, local sustainable food chain, and hunter-gatherer food chain. All four of this food chains are different therefore people will like different kinds. I'm going for the local sustainable food chain. They provide us food without raising their farm animals in harm and they help the land. The food is better because you are aware of how if became and knowing that your supporting big businesses that just care about their profit. The food you get will be base on the season which is kinda cool if you think about. It not a supermarket where you can walk in get anything you want. Their are a lot more reason to why I have chosen the local sustainable food chain.
Dr. Valoy With His Choice
In this book, we learned about different kinds of food chains. There were some that were better than others and each one was beneficial in its own way. After thinking about it, I would prefer that my family and I would eat local sustainable food. I chose this food chain because it's not only beneficial for me, but for the animals as well. With this type of farming, animals are treated with care and freedom. Also, the food isn't processed and the food travels short distances, so it's more fresh. It'll probably taste better, too. This food chain is actually beneficial for the farmers as well because when the chickens are in the floorless pens, they eat grass and the chicken manure fertilizes the soil. Also, the chickens are able to be happy and walk around to eat grass. With some other food chains, the animals eat mostly corn, but in this food chain, chickens get to eat food other than corn like grasshoppers, worms and crickets that they find. This is healthy for the chickens and for us. Therefore, I would choose to eat local sustainable food because it's fresh and everyone benefits from it as well.

Dr.Manyamu: It Time To Vote With Our Fork
Before I read the chapter about voting with your fork I was very clear that no matter how I vote with fork the way I now see my food is very different. When your more aware of how your food is process you tend to change your eating habits; I sure know that what happen to me. So how I'm going to vote. It wasn't easy coming to decision but I know that when I now food shopping I will think twice about what I decide to buy. I can simply start in my house being the oldest of so many siblings I have some type of say and influence on them when it comes to eating. If they see me eating things that were grown local they most likely will to. I told two if my sister about the Omnivore's dilemma and how the book makes a different in someone life so they end up telling me about how their school is auger free. So they don't really support the industrial food chain their no soda machine they have salad bars etc. That supporting local farm. Instead of going to the supermarket I have a few farmer market around my neighborhood so I can go their instead. The idea is that a little change can have a big effect. So to concluded I for the local sustainable food chain.
Let's all Vote With Our Fork!
How will I vote with my fork? How will you vote with your fork? What does that even mean? The ideology behind it is quite simple. Will you feed your dollars to the CAFOs who are harming us, the environment, and destroying the lives of animals; or will you support those local farms, where animals have sustainable lives, the land is replenished in the process, and farmers earn the pay they deserve? These are one of the most powerful votes you can make, because it can shape you, the environment, the lives of others, and ultimately- the world. You don't need to be part of a food chain- you can summon the awakening of a new one. You can be the creator with one simple decision. There are evident votes- and you can make three everyday. And best of all, you don't need to be eighteen to start voting. You can start now. Support and strengthen the food chains that you think deserve to gain popularity and recognition for the better. Food revolves around your life- so wouldn't these votes too? You won't always get that right vote. C'mon we all crave for that big soda, or Mac once in a while at least. These situation are inevitable and are perfectly fine. The problem is that fast food is becoming a habit for us. A very unhealthy habit if you ask me. You have more influence than you realize. And these small differences can make the largest one of all. That's why I'm voting for the local sustainable food chain. I help my farmers, my environment, and myself. My parents always go to the farmer's market, and we usually almost always eat organic food. Plus, the food's delicious when you buy them locally! We can all cast our votes now- for a better world or the worst. You're living here- wouldn't you want to decide what can control you or not? Please don't make corn your president. Trust me- you'll regret it.

Michael Polan's claim for the Hunter Gatherers~DR.Okolo
Michael Pollan's
The Reality of it All: Hunter- Gatherer Food Chain
Michael Pollan presents many claims about the topic of the Hunter- Gatherer Food Chain. One claim he talks about is the understanding that the hunter-gatherer food chain is a natural process of the world and we have to accept it as it is, for our own nourishment. Pollan faces, well you can say, a dilemma of emotions trying to understand what he should feel for killing the animal. Excitement? Remorse? Shame? Thankfulness? While we do learn bits of the direct and indirect inputs and outputs of this food chain, this chapter moreover focuses on his own personal experience reflecting on the idea of a hunter's responsibility to understand what they're doing. To understand that while they're hunting for food they're still killing an animal. "Hunters ought to be aware of their seriousness of what they're doing and never treat it lightly." Pollan felt joy discovering his new abilities, succeeding the task, and felt... alive. However, no matter how he looked at it, he felt remorse for killing the pig also. Soon he had understood at least part of the depth of the situation. That he had to accept it. That by discovering the origin of this food , he realized that he, that we all are part of a food chain. We did not create it, we are the components that support it. The man is just taking the nourishment for his own benefit. " In the end, whatever we think or feel, triumph or shame, that is just the way it is.
,
Dr. Tejada: What claim?
Dr.Manyamu: Hunter Gather
The claim Michael Poll an is making about the hunter gatherer food chain is that just because you ate killing your own food doesn't mean you created a different food chain your apart of it. On page 246 Mr. Pollan talk about the last photo Angelo send him he connects it back to this system that nature is his own food chain. In the picture their was an oak tree standing in the sun. Using the sun it made acorns. Then the pigs eat those acorns. Then they hunted and kill that pig and now it their meal. On page 245 he describe another dilemma where the question is what is the joy of hunting so his point is that even though you're hunting was it really worth it. In the wood he excited that he try something new but then again he felt regretful for killing the pig. He concluded by saying hunters need to take what they do seriously.
Dr. Valoy With The Hunter-Gatherer Food Chain
The claim that Michael Pollan is trying to make about the hunter-gatherer food chain is that people who hunt should know what they're actually doing. The text states, "But at that moment, I'm slightly embarrassed to admit, I felt absolutely terrific-completely happy." This shows the feeling that he felt at that exact moment. The text also states," Suddenly I felt ashamed". This demonstrates how later, he realized what he actually did and then he didn't feel the emotions he felt before. Therefore, the hunter-gatherer food chain can sometimes cause a shift of emotions when the people who hunt realized what they did.
Hunter-Gatherer: A food chain of regret ~ Dr. Flores
Dr.Wright
The is mostly talking about how he felt after killing the pig.It states that, "The happy excitement didn't last long"(pg 242).This shows that even though it was his first time hunting he wasn't happy because he killed an animal.It also states, "What I really wanted was breathe of fresh air"(pg243),This shows how he felt while he was taking apart the pig.

The Omnivore Solution
Local Sustainable Food Chain- The Solution to the Omnivore's Dilemma
Dr. Okolo's Solution to the Omnivore's Dilemma
D.r mexican
The solution for the omnivore's dilemma that the local sustainable food chain offer is that they want the want to put the corn far away from the farmer. But they putting a offer to put the corn next to the farmer. But if the corn is far from the farmer then there is a issue for the farmer to make money from there food.
Dr. Valoy With The Solution For The Omnivore's Dilemma
When reading chapter 16 of the book, it mentions some solutions for the Omnivore's Dilemma that the local sustainable food chain offers. One solution is that with this kind of farming, your food is clean and organic. That means that the food is grown naturally and is healthy for us. Another solution is that people can feel more connected to their food and know where it's coming from. This means that people can know how their food is grown. Therefore, the solution for the Omnivores Dilemma that the local sustainable food chain offers is that people can be more aware of where their food is coming from and if it's clean and organic, as well.
omnivore Dilemma ~ Dr. Flores
Dr. Tejada: Solution?
Dr.Manyamu: omnivore's dilemma
The omnivores dilemma is that where not as connected to our food as we used to be. In the local sustainable food chain Michael Pollan present us a solution to that dilemma. On page 184 it States " Somehow getting their meat and eggs from the Salatins helped these folks solve their dilemma. This show that know how their food is raise and where comes from make them feel better about this dilemma. The customer felt more connected to their foods. Also they think the food taste better
