"Journal Writing" on Michael Pollan's Corn's Conquest

     I wish we as Americans would have left food the way it was all natural. But there is not much I can do about it when I live in a house with little land to grow my own fruits and vegetables. I am not surprised at all Americans are always trying to find a way to make food last longer and have more salt and sugar than there needs to be. I am very concerened especially since I have high blood pressure and diebetes. Pollan has me thinking that I need to check even futher into what I am eating. I already watch what I eat because I must not eat things that have to much salt, sugar, and carbohydrates. I think Pollan has writen something that is informative and that foods in the grocery store are not the best to be eating and we as Americans need to be more thoughtful to what we are putting into our bodies.
