Junk - Food Heaven

I think the purpose of Junk-Food Heaven is that everything is good in proportion, the author wanted to have junk food in his home but he became consumed with junk food and ended up hating it in the end and wanting to eat something his wife had bought and was in the house the whole time. I think the audience of this chapter was anyone who grocery shops mostly adults. I think one strategy he uses is using brand names makes it easy to relate to what he is talking about. The author also goes into detail making it even easier to understand how nasty this food really is. I liked the point of this chapter and I liked how he described everything.

The purpose of this I think was to inform readers of how much change has occurred in the types of food out there and how growing up may influence the types of food you may have liked when you were younger compared to the types you like now.
The audience that he is most likely aiming for is most likely just the general public, or anyone who finds this topic interesting. And I think that he uses brands and names that most people will recognize so that they can relate to the situations he is writing about. He also throws in a little humor to keep the readers reading.
All in all I don't really read much but when I have to I like the things I'm reading to be interesting and even though this was kind of a random subject I managed to keep on reading so it wasn't all that bad. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what sort of other random subjects get brought up in this book.

I chose Junk Food Heaven as the chapter I wanted to talk about. The purpose of this is He hadn't had junk food in a while so he wanted to try it and thought it looked good. In the End he didn't like it as much as he did when he was younger and always have mix reactions to the food. The Audience of this chapter is probably teenagers to adults. I think that he uses junk food and how he has never had it in a while and people wanted to read it because they want to see how he reacts to eating that much junkfood. I actually liked this because i remembered it and thought it was a interesting topic to write about.

Junk-Food Heaven

I think that the purpose of this reading, is to inform people that even though junk-food may taste good, or look better then many healthy foods in all actuality it is really bad for you. Also that sometimes junk-food may taste good occasionally, but in mass quantities it may make you feel sick. I think the audience the author is trying to target in general is all Americans, but mostly younger generations that have grown accustomed to fast food and poor eating habits. Some of the strategies the author uses to inform his audience that junk-food is not the healthiest choice, is talking about the chemicals that keep the food product preserved, the way even the sight of junk food made him feel sick to his stomach, and describing the taste in textures of the food in a negative light. My response to the authors essay is that most of what he rights is very true. Americans thrive on junk food, I mean think of all the fast food chains that extremely successful. The reason that they are so successful is because they are easily accessible and fast. Two things that Americans love, and that is why I agree with the author in the sense that Americans thrive on junk-food.

The purpose of the chapter seems to me to be about the things we dont understand but work with everyday, such as the example given about the moble phone. How they work all around the world sending voices to other peoples ears, but they cant do the same with pizzas. The audience that he is directing to is the genral public and his strategies are pretty simple. Just by giving examples like the size of engines and stuff.. for what i have read of this book so far its very unimpressive.

I think that the purpose of this reading is to inform us that junk food isn't really that good for you and that it makes you very unhealthy, even though it tastes good. I think that the author is targeting all of us but mostly younger adults because we are the ones that are all getting bigger and eating unhealthier food because of all the fast food and junk food that is easily assessable. The author used stratigies that were very good like telling us how delicious all the junk food was and how it was going to taste so good but in the end it made him sick and he didnt want to eat it anymore. It is also showing that there are people, like your parents who tell you to eat healthy because it is good for you but most kids dont listen and end up with a stomach ache. The stratagie is saying that healthy food is alot better for you then junk food. i think that this is a very good artical because it is very true, i love to eat junk food but to mush of it can make me sick and it makes me feel alot better to eat a good healthy meal rather then snacks all day.

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
