In this blog I will discuss what I learned from our English
101 class. During class, the books we read, which were The CAFO Reader by Daniel Imhoff and Slaughterhouse by Gail Eisnitz were very informative and taught us a lot
about industrial farming systems. These books explain to us the extent to which
how unhealthy the meat that is produced by industrial farms is in America.
This semester, I have learned a lot about industrial farming
systems that I didn’t know before. I was never fond of the concept of
industrial farming, but I have even more unpleasant opinions on the concept
after taking this class. Before I didn’t know that our domesticated animals regularly
ingest antibiotics. This is really bad because it disrupts the digestive
systems of the animals. Furthermore, the animals in industrial farms are given
very unhealthy diets as they are fed manure, urine, dust, and the remnants of
other dead animals. Not only is this detrimental for the health of the animals,
but it affects the health of humans who later consume those animals as well. Due
to such mistreatment, Americans are suffering many diseases today, as a result
of eating animals that weren’t taken care of well. Reading Imhoff’s and Eisnitz’s
books made me realize how dangerous it actually is to consume the meat produced
by industrial farms. In addition, it makes me sad to know how much workers in
industrial farming systems suffer, as well as the animals.
All the things made me changed my mind to eat fast food, and
I just say everybody to concern your food what you eat every day. After all,
healthy food is allows people to live healthy lives
