I think everyone agrees- each day starts with breakfast. And trust me, you´re gonna need a lot of energy for this one. The most of us “modern people” are into those “not always delicious healthy food choices” and almost everybody thinks it’s impossible to find a place in America that serves food without additional junk. I agree, but there are some exceptions. If you are one of those “fit lovers” you can enjoy healthy, organic and also delicious food at the French place called Au Bon Pain. Although croissants ain’t organic, they never killed nobody.
If you are a tourist like me and also a girl too, I bet you would die

Food or clothes? We went for food, of course. So if you saved some money from earlier and you are ready to have some fancy lunch and gain true Downtown experience to feel like you are in a movie, this small Italian mafia´s place in Soho is a great choice. What´s cool about Ill Mulino Prime is that you can order wine and in addition that they will give you these delicious home-made potato chips (which they keep refilling) and a plate full of Italian cheese and bread. So basically you get fed even if you only buy a bottle of wine. This place creates an exclusive atmosphere once you are in there, surrounded by those Italian men who all look like Godfather movie characters.
By the time you do all of this, it´s almost evening. What´s better idea than going for a nice walk. My favorite place is the Brooklyn Bridge. You can pass it from Manhattan to Brooklyn or vice versa. This place will offer you all-in-one kind of experience- romance, spectacular view of the both sides of the City and a pretty good
In Michael Pollan’s essay “Escape from the Western Diet,” he directly to Americans about the western diet and why he believes they need to escape from it. The reason Americans should escape the western diet is to avoid the harmful effects associated with it such as “western diseases” (Pollan, 420). To support his view on the issue, Pollan describes factors of the western diet that dictate what Americans believe they should eat. These factors include scientists with their theories of nutritionist, the food industry supporting the theories by making products, and the health industry making medication to support those same theories. Overall, Pollan feels that in order to escape this diet, people need to get the idea of it out of their heads.
The Critique Essay of the “Escape from the Western Diet” In his work Escape from the Western Diet Michael Pollan focused on American negative food habits, their place in different spheres of the society and general possible ways to improve the food behavior. “The Western Diet is known for its lack of fresh fruit and vegetables and its strong reliance on fast-food, high sugar beverages, high-fat dairy, refined carbohydrates and red meat” (“Western Diet”). While many experts focus on its content, Pollan suggested to turn the attention to the effect the diet has on social, industrial and medical spheres. The author highlighted they unlikely will completely abandon the Western diet as it promote their development.
This is a night of pure music- be it jazz, pop, indie rock, big bands. After or before attending the concert you can stroll the city and visit other points of interest such as John Hancock Tower, Trinity church, and the Boston Public Garden.

Nowadays in America, we are encountering problems with our food system. The way it’s being processed is affecting everyone. From youngest to oldest, farmers to lawyers and smallest to biggest animal. Consumers are made to believe that they are buying and eating healthy foods , but the labels that led them to believe that are not completely honest. The essay “Escape from the Western Diet” written by Michael Pollan is an explanation of the theories of the western diet.
Several individuals from different ethnicities, races, and citizenships, compose a society. The United Sates allow us to have a close interaction with numerous individuals from diverse backgrounds. In my own case I have been able to interact with many incredible individuals from all over the world who come from extremely different backgrounds. I am a proud Mexican who cherishes respect towards diversity. Coming from a very suffered country I am able to understand not only what does it means to feel proud to be a Latino, but also I can feel acquainted with the pain and struggle that our community has to face every day.
Baseball is what many call “America’s Pastime”. It is the game that never fails to bring me from the highest highs to the lowest lows. The second that you think you are the best, the game will humble you. When you are at a loss for confidence, you will do something amazing that will turn your game around. Nothing beats the smell of the spring air, the dirty pants, the laughs with teammates and the glory of winning.
The new American hero (Just a quick look) Can you see the handsome young man sitting by my side, driving through the forest, behind the wheel of his decadent truck? Yes. I would trust him with my life (sip of vodka).
In “How Junk Food Can End Obesity” David Freedman argues that ending processed food is not going to help solve obesity problems. He knows that “Junk food is bad for you because it’s full of fats and problems carb” (Freedman 515). Freedman believe that we should use technology to improve fast-food by taking out the unhealthy products in it, instead of getting rid of fast-food entirely. He also talks about his experiences with food between wholesome food and McDonald’s. He discusses how McDonald’s smoothies have the lowest calories and are cheapest out of all other smoothies he had.
In recent decade, the United States has seen supermarkets continuously get filled with packages labeled with things like “Low sodium” or “No Trans Fats.” Companies stick these labels on their food to match the current fads of what is good for you and what is not. In his essay Unhappy Meals, Michael Pollan advocates a return to natural and basic foods, and deplores nutritionism. Pollan argues that nutritionism does not actually tell people what is healthy or not, and that the only way to be sure you are eating healthy is to eat natural, fresh food.
The American Identity is more than just being a citizen in America. What makes the American Identity is the diversity that exists in America. America is a melting pot, which consists of many ethnic groups, religions, and ideas. It isn’t the appearance that makes you American, it is your mind and the way one acts make one American. I am a kid who is part Korean, French, and Chinese.
(424). These powerful words of insight from the author emphasize just how far the consumers of the western diet have distanced themselves from natural food their ancestors used to once indulge on. For example, going back sixty to seventy years ago families had to prepare their meals with more nutritious foods as they did not have nearly the same accessibility to the amount of processed and fast-foods that Americans do
The amount of unhealthy food consumed in America goes well beyond McDonalds. In fact, you have to go no farther than your local grocery store to find equally as terrible food choices. For example, in recent years the government has put out warnings against eating fat in excess, which lead many big food companies, from yogurt to Wheat Thins, to send out new products with “less fat”. However, products with “less fat” actually have nearly twice as much sugar. Many studies have shown that sugar in excess is much worse than fat.
January 11, 2013, I wake up to yelling, prayers, and crying. I walked into the kitchen where all the noises were coming from and I found my mother on the floor crying, talking on the phone with my godmother. My father was there by her side, trying hard not to cry while supporting his wife. I didn’t know what was happening, this was the first time I’ve seen my mom so vulnerable and broken. My parents didn’t tell me anything other than my grandmother was in critical condition at the hospital, but with god's help she would overcome this hard time.
New York is an incredible city. Known as the city that never sleeps, its nights are as lively as its days. Sometimes you can feel lost in the excitement. Being lost is not a good thing if you are on a secret mission. In Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick ,Joe Schreiber uses the New york city at night to exacerbate the conflict between Gobi and Perry.
I was likewise inquisitive to see Soho in more fine grained detail since I as of late read the book, The Swimming Pool Library by Alan Hollinghurst. It's an anecdotal story of a youthful gay man's life living in London before the AIDS emergency. I really distinguished a ton with the story—in addition to there were some truly provocative scenes (sexual fiction is quite cool, who knew?!). Be that as it may, what was quickly obvious from the novel were the areas and spots said—a hefty portion of them broadly in London Soho and a few, even ones I perceived. What's more, as I've composed some time recently, flying out to spots found in popular culture dependably makes for more significant treks.
