Why the Fries Taste Good

This JanTerm at Whitworth I took “Biology of NW Agriculture”. The class covered the biological concepts that underline current topics in agriculture of the Northwest. And popular views of the biological factors thought to play a role in agriculturally related issues.

We went through a book called Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser. “Schlosser's incisive history of the development of American fast food indicts the industry for some shocking crimes against humanity, including systematically destroying the American diet and landscape, and undermining our values and our economy,” says Publisher’s Weekly.

For our final presentation my friend Heather Moir and I talked about French Fries and all of the following aspects: production, agriculture, controversies, and health related issues. We even researched the biology of it too!
Hope you like it!

So this is the New Year

This year didn't go according to plan; we said things we can't take back. But time heals all, and this New Year will bring on better days. So let's start at the beginning. And remember that the ones who know you the best, are the ones you can count on in hard times. And will be there with you through it all.
