Summary: The Popchips Company
Semantics – This Popchips Company is using semantics to advertise their healthier choice of chips. This is only a clever ad if the reader is familiar with the phrase “spare me the guilt trip”, and they changed it to state, “spare me the guilt chip” in order to explain their chips are healthy, and you do not need to feel guilty after eating them. Originally the phrase, “spare me the guilt trip” is based on the idea that if someone does something they know they should not be doing, such as eating chips, that someone (or their self) will continually nag them about doing what they should not be doing. However, the Popchips company changed the “tr” to “ch” in order to change the meaning all-together. This is also an example of phonology, in which

    Pop Eleches Documentary Summary

    Pop-Eleches (2006) discusses the socioeconomic outcomes of children that were born during the abortion and contraception ban that was implemented by the Ceausescu regime in Romania from 1967 to 1989. Interestingly, Romania is a unique case study, because unlike others, the country had liberal abortion legislation that was later overturned and replaced with a rigid and enforced abortion ban. Meanwhile, other studies often focused on the socioeconomic outcomes of children in the United States of America after the legalization of abortion.…

    Tootsie Pop Analysis

    (1) Ever since the cartoon commercial advertisement for the Tootsie Pop aired in 1970, fans have been trying to answer the famous question posed in the Advertisement: “How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?” This commercial is one that can be enjoyed by a wide variety of audiences, however, it seems to be particularly memorable for children. It is animated, extremely colorful, and seems to follow a short plot similar to that of a children’s story. So how, exactly, was this company able to build up such a huge fan base using one cleverly thought out advertisement? This commercial might seem quite simple, however, it’s with many persuasive tactics. For example, the question “How many licks does it take…

    Food Inc

    The movie makes some really good points. The best point is that subsidized corn artificially lowers the cost of animal feed and high-fructose corn syrup. This creates a tax-subsidized economic incentive for people to choose fast food over nutritious options. Scrapping farm subsidies including corn would be a great idea (that the movie doesn't propose). It has a good segment about how Monsanto is using intellectual property law to unfairly create a US soybean monopoly, suing farmers who never bought Monsanto seed and forcing them to capitulate because of the sheer weight of legal bills.…

    Food, Inc.

    They way humans eat has changed more in the last fifty years than in the previous 10,000. The film Food, Inc. sheds a ghastly light on corporate farming and the industrialization of the food industry. It uses several perspectives ranging from a chicken farmer that is cutting ties with oppressive Perdue, to inside the very plants that chemically treat massive amounts of meat to illustrate just how unnatural and dangerous today’s food can be. The movie is devided into three main segments. The first focuses on the inhumane production of meat, including beef, chicken, and pork. Not only are animals treated inhumanely, the mass production of farm animals has had an enormous and negative impact on our environment from pesticide runoff to increased number of cattle emitting poisonous, ozone-depleting gas. The conglomerate companies care even less of the people they employ. The film mentions how Upton Sinclair’s ‘The Jungle’ changed the workplace forever, creating safer environments for workers and the formation of unions. The companies have regressed the workplace hundreds of years by hiring illegal immigrants that will tolerate shoddy conditions and low pay just to be allowed to work there. The second portion of the movie focuses on the industrial production of grains and vegetables, primarily corn and soy. Focusing on these two grains makes a large portion of food available contain only corn. Also, it is so cheap and readily available that once grass-fed cattle and other farm animals are fed only corn. This corn diet leads to e-coli infections in the animals and, in turn, infects humans and can lead to death. All to lower the cost and increase production. The film's third and final segment is about the economic and legal power, such as food labeling regulations of the major food companies, the profits of which are based on supplying cheap but contaminated food, the heavy use of petroleum-based chemicals (largely pesticides and fertilizers), and the promotion of…

    Food Inc.

    Michael Pollan, author and co producer said “I had no idea that a few companies change what we eat today” (Food Inc.). Today’s food companies are so large that they control every aspect in the food industry. The company’s control who grows the crops, what crops are grown, where the crops are shipped, how the crops are utilized and who can use the new products. The farmers have no say on how to running their own farm. The companies try to portray a good image to the consumers by having old farming equipment or old fashion barns in their labels to act as if that is how that company farms their products. The consumer is not going to investigate what actually goes into the products or how they grow. That is unneeded work for the customer. This is why it works well for the companies. This documentary tries to persuade the viewer to buy local grown foods or organic foods from Wal-Mart. The documentary uses many tactics of persuasion to portray the images that they think will get their point of view across clearly.…

    Food Inc.

    After watching the film Food, Inc. I gain knowledge on parts of our food industry that was unknown to me. When it comes to the United States food industry our way of production in my opinion is very wrong and cruel. I know many people love meat and I’m a meat eater as well but why put the animals through this process of getting the meat. The process is very disturbing. The meat that we are receiving in the stores is not being thoroughly inspected. Many of the cows that were shown in the video were sick from malnutrition yet they were still slaughtered for ground beef and other beef portions .What is wrong with our food safety is that when there is an outbreak the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) don’t step in until it affects that whole state, the illness is severe and the food as to be a FDA regulated product as stated by the Food Safety.gov. I’m my opinion I don’t understand that process of letting the state handling food borne outbreaks until that it’s too much for them then getting the FDA involved. It makes more since to get the FDA involved at the beginning so the illness wants spread as much and want affect as many people. As stated by the U.S. Department of health Studies and FDA they are having a hard time trying to decrease food borne illness breakouts because there is a increase in consumer demand for food that is less processed and in return that makes food distribution more complex when trying to find the source of the illness or the cause for the outbreak. So basically until they can be able to break down and identify the main source of food we as a nation will always have that challenge. There is so much that goes into food production today that it’s hard for the FDA and CDC to control food borne disease and outbreaks are becoming larger than ever. Each year the FDA and CDC gather reports and compare them to previous…
