The Waffle House is not the typical place of employment. Working at the Waffle House might seem hard when you are on the costumer side of the counter. The Waffle House Company has a very different way of going about things. When visiting the Waffle House people will notice that the workers treat the costumers like family.…

The main benefit of the school board trying to regulate healthier foods into their breakfast and lunch menu is to make sure our youth are eating right and getting all the nutrients they need to live a strong and healthy life. They want to make sure, even if they aren’t eating right at home, they are getting some sort of healthy foods. Even if it is only once a day, they are hoping that this new impact will be a start to students wanting to eat healthier and be more active.…
The focus of this essay is to explore the different conflicts and resolutions that are undergone between racially, religiously, and culturally diverse mothers and daughters-in-law. These different conflicts and resolutions are analyzed in two literary works: Day of Honey: A Memoir of Food, Love, and War by Annia Ciezadlo, which takes place in post 9/11 America and the Middle East, as well as Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich, set in rural North Dakota from 1934 to 1984. A critical analysis reveals that the daughters-in-law of these two literary works are able to overcome their differences with their mothers-in-law through selfless acts, and forge new meaning and relationships that fulfill their lives. Annia’s relationship with her mother-in-law, Umm Hassane, begins with mutual respect and love, but transforms into a game of proofs in which the resolution takes time and hard work to achieve. In Erdrich’s novel, the relationship of Rushes Bear and her daughter-in-law, Marie, is a years-long bitter struggle in which surrender brings about a similar kind of respect and love. In this essay, through an analysis of the different conflicts and methods of reconciliation, I will argue that between the racially, religiously, and culturally diverse in-laws of these two books, respect is something that comes hard earned. These daughters-in-law are able to prove that they are worthy of their mothers-in-law’s respect through demonstrations of sacrifice.…
One of the most controversial ingredients in processed foods, and unfortunately one of the most popular ingredients, is high fructose corn syrup. High fructose corn syrup is produced from corn starch; it also includes predominately fructose and glucose. It has higher proportions of fructose than regular corn syrup, usually forty-two or fifty-five percent more, with the remaining sugars being glucose and other sugars. High fructose corn syrup is a sweetener that can be found in thousands of food and beverages throughout the United States. However, it contains many harmful effects on the human body and leads to many severe health issues.…

order to survive and maintain a healthy lifestyle, everyone needs Food. How much do we actually know about the food we buy and serve to our families on a daily basis? There has been little awareness and understanding of food in America until the film Food Inc., which helps show us how our food is produced, packaged and sold in our native stores. Our nation’s food supply is being controlled by a few amounts of corporations that often put their income ahead of customer health. It’s time that the truth is heard about what we are putting into our bodies, and what is being hidden from us by the food industry.…
It is common knowledge that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Logic then infers that in order for this crucial meal to be properly attributed, it ought to include the best food there is. Cheerios, introduced in 1941, have withstood the test of time and continue to charm one generation after another. The classic taste of these savoury morsels satisfies individuals of all ages. Not only do toddlers love to munch on this perfect snack food, adults cannot resist the crunch and simple pleasure Cheerios provide. The delicious quality of Cheerios is not only in its taste, but its nutritional value as well. Since they provide a healthy way to begin the day, taste great in countless recipes and are a favourite among children, there is no food that can compare with the one and only Cheerios.…
I recently watched a cheerios commercial that was aired during the 2014 Super bowl back in February. This commercial was different than any other cheerios commercial because it involved an interracial couple and their mixed daughter. In the video, you see the little girl and her mother sitting at the table. The girl starts off by saying “mom, dad said cheerios were good for your heart is that true?” The mother replies, “Cheerios has healthy grains and it helps with cholesterol so that’s heart healthy.” The little girl smirks and walks away. The next scene you see the dad sleeping on the couch with a whole bunch of cheerios on top of his heart. This video received a lot of backlash on YouTube about this interracial couple. One stereotypical…
With such an obsession with sweet foods, there is an obvious desire for an explanation of how such a once unknown substance took center stage on everybody’s snack, dessert, and candy list. That’s where Sidney W. Mintz comes into play. He decided to write this book Sweetness and Power, and from the looks of all the sources he used to substantiate his ideas and data, it seems that he is not the first person to find the role that sugar plays in modern society important. By analyzing who Mintz’s audience is meant to be, what goals he has in writing this book, what structure his book incorporates, what type,…
Natural yellowcake in uranium has less then 1% uranium-235 but nuclear power plants needs fuel that has four percent uranium-235. Uranium firsts needs to be treated to be enriched in order to increase the percentage of uranium-235. However, before uranium can be enriched, a chemical is added to the yellowcake to convert it into uranium hexafluoride (UF6). When placed in room temperature UF6 turns into a crystal. The crystal is then heated to turn into a gas. It is enriched by gaseous diffusion or gas centrifuge to increase the concentration of u-235 and get rid of u-238.…
Did you know that bats are mammals? We know they are mammals just like us because we have analyzed them, and know they are warm blooded. They are the only mammal that known how to fly. Bats are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day, and are awake at night.…
I think that I was unfairly awarded a C in your accounting class this term, and I am asking you to change the grade to a B. It was a difficult term. I don't get any money from home, and I have to work mornings at the Pancake House (as a cook), so I had to rush to make your class, and those two times that I missed class were because of special events at the Pancake House (unlike some other students who just take off when they choose). On the midterm examination, I originally got a 75 percent, but you said in class that there were two different ways to answer the third question and that you would change the grades of students who used the "optimal cost" method and had been counted off 6 points for doing this. I don't think you…
Eating breakfast should be an important event in your life every morning. But make sure you choose the food that is of a healthy nature. There are many health benefits for eating breakfast every morning. It is even more beneficial for children of all ages.Here is what we know about this claim. Your mother, most likely believed breakfast to be the most important meal of the day. It has been proven that a healthy breakfast is linked to many health benefits. Studies have shown that breakfast provides these valuable health benefits:* A diet that is high in nutrients, vitamins and minerals*Improved concentration and performance in school and even at work.* More strength and endurance to engage in physical activity* Lower cholesterol levelsKnowing all of this I was greatly disturbed about a recent article I read in a health newsletter I subscribe to. It was about a ridiculous cereal claim that had nothing to do with a healthy breakfast meal. Kellogg's announced that their cereal "Cocoa Krispies" now helps support your child's immunity."Why is this claim so ridiculous and very disturbing to me? Because no matter how you look at it, this product falls into the class of "sugary foods" and "sugary foods" are not good for children or adults. Not only that, there is no way that any cereal of this type is an immunity booster.How is it that a company like Kellogg's can make such a claim when sugar is one of the mostly damaging of all foods to your body? Constant use of sugar causes many major diseases, cancer in particular is one of them. But the list also includes many more illnesses and diseases than you might not believe are effected.Do you realize that in America it's illegal to claim that vitamin D boost immunity function (even though there is many facts to support this)? There have been doctors and clinics that express the merits of these kinds of natural remedies and have been shut down and threatened with arrests.Why doesn't…
