                                   The different point of view from food production

   The last time when I read the articles which are called The Infographic by Cook, the introduction part of the book tomatoland and “An Animal’s Place”, these three authors compares three pieces of the food production and history. Also, there are some social phenomenon were revealed. 

         In the first article infographic by cook, the author mainly talks about the harmless broiler chicken in North America. The author researched the broiler chicken in North American. The most thing makes me amazing is the broiler chicken is not healthful. The first reason is the meat inspectors should process chicken carcasses too fast because the rising demand of broiler chicken. So, it is easy to have some healthy issues in some way by an oversight on a small logistical detail. On the other hand, these workers are treated indifferently in American. They are doing one of the dangerous works but the government gives them very scanty allowance. Even though they cannot afford the prptective boots, gloves and aprons, so there are many bacteria will easily makes them infected with the bird flu. Due to these reasons, unsafe measures will result in the increase of work accidents. Such as the author says, “Injured foreigners aren’t eligible for welfare or disability benefits”(Christopher, 42). In my opinion, I think this issue should be solved. Otherwise not only the customers will dare not to buy the broiler chicken because that is insanitary, but also a skimpy allowance will makes the workers do not want to take this job anymore because it is too dangerous.  

         In second article, tomatoland, the author believes the different tomatoes grow in different country not only will have different appearance, also the taste are definitely different. He tried to find out some history and production of the tomatoes in order to prove his point of view. I agree with his opinion-we should find the different of tomatoes by comparing the appearance and the taste it in different area. In last article, the author talks about the history and production of food is someway.
