I am so sorry for not posting my first two days! I have been posting them on the face book page! Any who, I am currently taking a sociology of food course at the University of Connecticut and I am learning a lot about how our nation is basically poisoning us and feeding us complete garbage. The worst part of it all is how we get our food. I never knew or even thought about what or who picked and grew and harvested the food that I have such easy access to. I am posting two youtube videos in hopes that you can see what I see and share this to as many people you know. This is an eye opening problem and should be addressed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfEtO00DSvIwww.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vfbv6hNengI would like to say enjoy but these videos speak the truth! Please share and comment |

Hi everyone! I am also participating in the same class at Uconn mentioned above. I just wanted to give y'all a link to one of my favorite asian markets in my hometown West Hartford CT. Im posting this as a follow up to my post yesterday about whiteness. I have been to A Dong Asian Supermarket many times and love their wide selection of imported groceries. There is also a salvation army right next door and a good Pho noodle restaurant next to it if you want something fun to do after you shop! Check out their website if you are interested and feel free to post a response if you have ever been or go there and talk about how you felt at a non-white grocery! adongsupermarket.webs.com |

www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2015/02/13/385754265/how-nafta-changed-american-and-mexican-food-foreverCheck out this blog about Mexico and their food production! Mexican workers suffer constantly with poor working conditions. Many American corporations treat their food, which is their profit, better than their actual workers. their workers are pretty much disposable. The diversity of fruits and vegetables get imported into america which creates social class and then america exports all their junk food! only the wealthy have access to fruits and vegetables! its sickening
