Mass production of food and the effect on its consumers
Abstract
Where does the food we consume come from? We go to the grocery store and always know that the products we want will be there. Nothing runs out and we can pick up whatever we need. Meat, eggs, produce and even convenient frozen pre-made meals. But before we pick it up in the grocery store we never see how the food was grown or slaughtered and we don’t want to see it. If every one saw how our food was really produced most of us would turn to an all natural vegan diet. Chemicals are pumped into everything we eat and drink. Nothing is real and natural anymore. Farms are shutting down and local business are dying. Eating these foods hurts our health, the environment and promotes animal cruelty. Knowing these facts why do we continue to consume mass produced food? Well, it is cheap, easy and convenient. But are those factors worth the decline of your health and the health of your family?

Where do all of these animals come from and why do we continue to look the other way? People do what most people do and follow society. They have such a disconnect that they don’t see the truth and what is really going on with the food that we are putting into our body. The diseases that these animals have are being consumed and is making people sick. We are
