Do you like healthy food? But it doesn’t fit your tastebuds? Do you know that bugs are healthy and delicious at the same time. It might seem gross and nasty, but if you like to eat healthy and it don’t taste the best then you should try to eat bugs. Restaurants around the world has bugs or insects on the menu to eat. The U.S should have bugs on our menu. Bugs should be on the menu because the are nutritious and they help the environment. In other country’s, restaurant’s have bugs on the menu for dinner, lunch, and breakfast. If other states have them, why don’t we. We don’t have bugs on our menus because people do not like them and think the are ugly and nasty, but bugs are nutritious and they are better on your taste buds to. If your trying to be healthy and the foods you eat don’t taste so good, so why don’t we try putting bugs on the menu. For example, it states in "WOULD YOU EAT THIS?" by Kristin Lewis, "Plus, insects are highly nutritious, and studies show that eating them is easy on the environment."
When sushi came out in the U.S, Americans didn’t lie the idea of eating raw fish, but look what sushi is today and people like it. To demonstrate, it states in " WOULD YOU EAT THIS" by Kristin Lewis, "Then again, when sushi first arrived in the U.S., many Americans were grossed out by the idea of eating raw fish. Now, there are more than 4,000 sushi restaurants across the country—it’s a $2 billion industry!" So if we gave sushi a chance, why not give bugs a chance.

    Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma tells how omnivores have a variety of foods to choose from, whether they are nutritious or not. The lack of steadying culture of food leaves us especially vulnerable to the blandishments of the food industry to exacerbate our anxieties about what to eat, the better to then assuage them with new products (5). That is true indeed. There is an abundance of food in America, so how are the options limited?

    Lastly, Pollan states that we should eat more plants, because they are the healthiest options available to us (Pollan 2015). The Western diet is very destructive to the health of someone who follows it, but many people would rather deal with the health issues caused by the diet than change the way they eat. The healthcare industry benefits from the poor decisions made by consumers. Rather than pushing people to try and improve their health, they create new drugs and procedures so that the healthcare industry makes a profit (Pollan 2015). While eating a cleaner and healthier diet might sound easy, Pollan warns consumers that many whole foods have been violated by industrial processes, and consumers should be hyper-aware of the quality of our food.

    When buying food, when do you second guess purchasing it because you don’t know where it came from, how much it costed to be manufactured, or if it has been dyed or chemically treated? Consumers of food are quite oblivious to what is done to the food they purchase and eat. In Harvey Blatt’s, America's Food:What You Don't Know About What You Eat, he states, “We don't think much about how food gets to our tables, or what had to happen to fill our supermarket's produce section with perfectly round red tomatoes and its meat counter with slabs of beautifully marbled steak” (Blatt). He also goes to say, “We don't realize that the meat in one fast-food hamburger may come from a thousand different cattle raised in five different countries. In fact,

    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.
