I think the purpose of the short story, was doing the same think over and over sometimes is not the best thing. For example he talks about eating all these good junk food even thought they are not good for your health. He believes that this is the way of the American life. He also did not like the fact that his wife was bringing home healthy food. I believe that he is trying to tell us what create obesity are supermarkets that is what his is telling us as audience without coming out and saying it. He also use words the can be identify as what obesity line the junk food, because if you but all these together that’s what we find out depending on what your minds think off at that’s point
Junk- Food Heaven
Purpose
I think that the purpose of this article was that a person can not eat junk food all the time. Junk food can be good once in a while, but should not be eaten for every meal. Even though it seems so good, it will eventually get old. He is showing and targeting so many of us who do the same things he described in the article.
Audience
I think the audience he was trying to target was the average American. He just describes what so many of us do when we eat, and go grocery shopping.
Strategies
I think the strategies he used was giving examples so many different kinds of examples. For example when he described cereal, cheese from a can, and toaster pastries. He also gives examples of how the average American consumes 17.8 of pretzels every year.
Response
I really liked this article. I think that it sounded like me when I go to the grocery store. I think that most Americans do eat a lot of junk food these days.

I think he wrote this article to prove that our society is kind of going down the waste side, once a person can get them selves used to a certain eating style either healthy or bad they usually stick to it and when they try a different style that they arent used to they dont like it just like anything else if you speak english and you try to learn to speak german you probably wont like it because your not used to it.
I think the audience he was trying to get to was just anyone who wants to read it because i dont think theres a certain age group or sex or anything in general that he was aiming at just trying to get it across to people. It's a pretty simple article.
The strategies to get our attention and so on, is using a lot of detail and making sure we understand what he is talking about by using examples.
I liked the article because I have been in the same boat a few times with that food issue my fiance always tries making me try different foods and when your used to certain style of foods you usually try sticking to them and thats what im good at.

Junk- food heaven
I think the purpose of this essay it to talk a little about how some people(Americans) just get use to eating junk food. There is aisles at the supermarket full of just junk food, like cheese out of a can and breakfast pizza. Then after a few weeks of eating junk he just couldnt just eat junk he just wanted healthy food again.
I think the audience he was targeting was young people to people who want to change the way they eat.
I think his tratagi of sharing all the different types of junk food and the way he went all out and in alot of details on the junk food. he alos shared the out come of having to eat junk food for a few week .
I did like the essay on junk food becauseof the detail the author put into it to keep my attention (job well done) the out come was not what I expected so that was even better.

Junk-Food Heaven p.55-58
The purpose of this essay is clearly to show how american food should not be considered food. It is so filled with chemicals to preserve the food, that its quality does not even compare to nutritional, good food.
The audience is any U.S. citizen that wants to hear the truth about the so called "good food" that we have become so accostumed to (that which we probably wouldn't like if we weren't used to it.)
The strategy he uses is an expiriment performed by himself. (buying tons of junk food and eating every last unsatisfying bit of it.) He adds funny comments such as "I longed for melted cheese that was in the shade of yellow unkown to nature."(haha!)(56)
I liked this essay! It made me laugh, but also kind fo disgusted to know that we eat food that is just so bad for us, and don't even realize it anymore. So many preservatives and additives that we just can't resist! I like the sarcastic humor, it makes it kinda fun to read, and makes you giggle in your head while reading.

I don't think there was to much of a purpose to this chapter except to get people's minds thinking. It is target audience is everyone. He asks random question. I liked this chapter because he asks questions everybody wonders about and gets you thinking well after you are done reading it. Some questions are serious, while some are humorous.

Hello
The purpose of writing this essay is to remind you that you can always go home. Yeah you might forget some of the techniques and be out of the ordinary, for instance, not remembering the name something in a hardware store. I believe his audience would target young people who move away from home and soon realize they have forgetton their natural home. His strategies, he uses his examples when he moves back home. What I thought about this essay was, it was nice, because, I didn't find it boring. I somewhat can relate myself to this essay, because soon, I will be going back home, and im sure I will not remember everything.
