This week we had two great meals. I love taco salad. It is what I eat all of the time but this is the first I have ever had that was vegan and it was still amazing. The all raw meal was to die for. It was a blast of flavor and I never thought of eating all raw. I do not like Italian food as much as Mexican but the raw pasta I enjoyed. That night I tried the French Toast recipe at home. It was not as good as when we had it in class but it was still tasty. I had a friend over and it was a fun reaction when she tried to think of how French toast could be made without eggs but she enjoyed the toast too.
The presentations this week were very interesting. This week was on environmental issues and social justice. I was part of the social justice group and the article that we read for class really hit me. The conditions that the workers were in were disgusting and I almost couldn’t keep on reading. I love animals and the environment but I hate when other human beings are being hurt. I found that Food Deserts are an interesting issue. I had never thought before this year about cities and real food. I always had a grocery store close to me and thought that everyone had one. The realization that this isn’t true is shocking. I could never live on fast food or 7-11s. I love gardening and nature. And the environment is very important to me because it is our life. We need the planet and so I feel like we should keep it safe. The presentation had a lot of facts on the environmental impacted of the meat industry. If we could do one thing to help lowering meat intake isn’t that hard to do. We can make a difference in the environment by little things that we do and buy.
