Food # 6 - Response to Pollan 1

In Omnivores Dilemma, Michael Pollan is saying that Americans don't have their own food culture. He thinks that Americans way of eating is mixed up with so many different food cultures that we don't have one of our own. I understand his point because many Americans eat differently but because America is known for obesity everyone thinks that the American food culture is the only the unhealthy and fatty foods. Also everyone bases their opinions of what foods are healthy and unhealthy on what the media and tv says. I think that to much of one food is unhealthy and also that everyone has a different body so they can react to foods differently than others. Many people go on diets and think that their body is becoming more healthy but a lot of the they aren't getting all the proper nutrients and protein that is needed.
