In truth, she mentions that “there will be nutritional differences, but they’ll be marginal” and “that doesn’t mean it is necessary to eat locally in order to be healthy. In fact, a person making smart choices from the global megamart can easily meet all the body’s needs” (Source B).

The Summary of My Testimony on Plea-Bargaining   State legislators are considering a bill that bans all plea-bargaining in our state. As the leading expert on plea-bargaining, I’m aware of the instrumental role that it plays in our justice system. Therefore, I’m grateful that this committee wants to hear from me.

I don’t have food allergies so, this book was very enlightening. Food allergies are extremely dangerous, and not many people think about them in this manner. Sandra explained that she had to worry about what she consumed, what she bathed in, where she traveled, and even her significant other.

She knew the food must smell good, and it was an important day for her, she wanted to make something he liked to put him in….a less bad mood.

She also makes sure to directly address advocates, experts, and media representatives. 2. Michelle Obama convinces the audience of her credibility by aligning herself with the parents in the audience and by showing herself to be a consumer of both the food and media companies’ products. She gives an illustration about how she previously fed her family before finding out there were healthier options.

Eleanor was more involved in the issues at hand in her time, such as fighting racism and sexism. Even though Michelle’s cause sounds a tad more trivial, they both combatted the important issues of their time; childhood obesity is an epidemic in our country today, and civil rights were essential back then.
