Summary Of The Revolted Taste Of Dog Food By Ann Hodgman
In this essay, Ann Hodgman was very descriptive on the revolted taste of dog food as well as the vividly unpleasant details of its unusual texture. Hogman gave me some sort of understanding of the texture of dog food, when she compared Gainers burgers to play doh and unexpectedly she made little cheese birds out of dog food, which I'm assuming the patty was grainy, smooth, and lumpy. When she explained the horrifying taste of cheddar, a very strong taste of week old cheddar in my tough , along with the feeling of play doh in my mouth, it turned my stomach, and the feeling that something like a burning sensations building up in my throat. I was very disgusted at the abnormally, when the patty was not evening cooking like a ordinary burger, which

    Unintentional scientific investigation is, by its very nature, un-designed. That’s not to say it is ill-designed or meritless and, in fact, as with the case in point, could be the impetus for true investigative research. In her piece “My Children, the Food Experiment,” Sandra Steingraber offers a glimpse into her five-year experience feeding her children without commercial influences, while living in a cabin in the woods. Free from child-directed mass marketing, Steingraber observed that her children enjoyed fruits, vegetables and other food to which they had been exposed.…

    Wendell Berry, the author of “The Pleasures of Eating”, claims that we, as a society, should know and care where our food actually comes from, to be able to realize that the food that reaches our tables has been through a ride that we may not necessarily like. He also encourages us to grow our own food and to buy our produce and fruits from a farmer’s market. I agree with the point that Berry is trying to get across. Making our own produce, fruits, meats, dairy, etc. is better because not only will we eat healthier and not be dependent on importing products but we will actually know what we are consuming. Sure making our own food is hard and it does take time, but there is no doubt that making it is better than faking it.…

    She describes her food in so much detail that it paints a picture in your head and the reader can basically taste it while they read. Reichl says: “I picked up one of the crabs with the tips of my chopsticks. They had been deep-fried, and they crunched and crackled in my mouth like some extraordinary popcorn of the sea. When the noise stopped, my mouth was filled with the faint sweet richness of crabmeat, lingering like some fabulously sensual echo”. (Reichl 75). She uses almost all of the five senses every time she describes her food. Reichl describes the food down to the ingredients. “The duck webs were all texture, gelatinous and so soft that the bones dropped from them when you put them in your mouth and all you tasted was mushrooms, soy sauce, ginger, anise, and wine reverberating down to your toes. At the end we had dog hearts—the deep yellow tarts made of lard and filled with sweetened egg yolks…”(Reichl 190).…

    According to my section of the novel, Personal, the universal topic does not coincide with every young American’s existence. The universal topic in the section Personal is how to hunt and kill for your own food and how to find the right fruits and fungi to eat in the wilderness. Most young americans don’t have to worry about any of this. Almost every piece of food is essentially handed to them. Hunting is a game to some of us, not a lifestyle or a necessity for life. The overall universal topic is how Omnivore’s obviously have a dilemma when it comes to choosing their own foods. Most young Americans can easily identify what kind of food they want for lunch or breakfast and sometimes they don’t even have a choice. For this reason, I disagree with with the statement that young Americans have trouble finding what they want to eat.…
