1 – Preparation. Read the book “Fast Food Nation” and watch one or more of the following films
B: Food Inc [Food, Inc. QFO 494 (2008, 94 min)]
2 – The Paper. You will submit a 5-7 page paper (1.5 spaced, 11 point font, 1 inch margins) that addresses the economics of food & diet.
Answer this: Over the last several decades, fast food companies have aggressively targeted children in their marketing efforts. Should advertisers be permitted to target children who lack the sophistication to make informed decisions and are essentially being lured into eating high fat, high calorie food through toys and cute corporate mascots? Is it possible that fast food companies – like tobacco companies – are recruiting increasingly younger consumers in order to insure a steady customer base as their older constituents die from heart disease, diabetes, and other obesity-related disorders?
3 – The Grade. Your paper will be graded on your analysis. I want to see how you relate the ideas of this course to the specific topic you select. I expect to you cite the book, the film(s), and additional sources, but I mostly care about YOUR THOUGHTS.
