In this reflection, first I will respond about The meatrix video or food industries and then about our class.
          I really like the video about the food industries. I learned so many things about how the food is made in the firms or in industries that I did not know before. For instance, the firms put all animals together in a big room that they cannot see the sunshine or anything in outside. As a result they get sick in a jam-packed area. The authority of industries give them shots to recover from illness. The employees of those industries are in very serious condition. They have to chase the machine to work fast to process the food  beginning to the last step. Some times employees get their fingers cut and get injured very seriously in the time of  possessing the food. These industries have so many secrets in its fields and they do not want people know these secrets. The reason is if people know these, they may not buy the food. We need to research in this field about how the food is being made in the industries before we consume it. We as a consumer should give priority the family firms in where the animals are taken good care without using any chemicals and these food are fresh.  
          Our class is going good by using good materials such as meatrix, to learn more information, write and practice more. Now everybody is looking forward to take the CAT test and eventually pass it  so every can take their main course related to the major. Especially I need to pass it. At this moment, I hope that I will pass it. I am really appreciated to this class that it is helping me so much to pass The CAT test.

Fast-food is very popular and people eat it a lot. People want to have very  cheap meals outside the home which lead restaurants to sell fast-food in the communities. As a result, the numbers of restaurants like Krispy Kreme, McDonalds are growing more aggressively since last twenty years. When people get off work , they go to McDonalds, located in California, to have meal (super size bacchanal) and including kids also. Restaurants offer sometimes free super size. In addition, kids order cheeseburger, fries plus super size coke. People are eating fat food which is available to have in restaurants. I agree with the author and I believe that people purchase fast-food from outside rather than making food at home which is not good according to my opinion.
            People want to have easy lives, cheap meals with less work. They don’t have time to make food at home on their own. They just easily order food or go to restaurants to buy food which is fat. people  work a lot  to make some money and get rest or sleep at home after finishing their work or job. In home, it takes a lot of time to make food.  People try to save their as much as possible. This is probably one of the reasons that people  go to restaurants to buy food  and not killing a lot of time at home. That’s why restaurants are growing rapidly to make food to satisfy the  people’s needs.
            People are consuming these  food very happily without paying attention whether  it is fat or not. As a result people are getting fat and get tired soon. Then they have to go to gym to exercise to control the body. Especially these fat food are affecting our kids and teenagers. We need to stop this habit and practice vise versa, which is making nice food at home as you want  and all the time not going  to buy fat food from restaurants. If you buy raw goods  from market and make food in home, you will  not only save a lot of money but also you will have healthy food. It is not wasting time making food at home but it is the time that you invest it for your health. We need to believe that health is wealth and we should avoid eating fat food and have a better, controlled and happy  lives.

Meat industries and Dairy firms are very popular around the world. Most of the people are depend on  these industries to buy foods. Some people may not like to buy these type of food instead they may start forming their own firm.  One of the massege of The Meatrix Film is,  as a consumer,  to stop  those industries and dairy firms for the  reasons of very  serious and poor condition and unhealthy environment. I believe that this is almost impossible to stop these industries and firms.
           People love to eat meat, milk, and others food made by industries because they need to survive. These foods are packed in very beautiful package with ingredients written on it. If people like this ingredients and adaptable to their health, they buy those foods. Industries produce the food and present them to the people which is not  easy task. People want easy lives and they buy this ready food and eat  it. If any animal is slaughtered  right in front of the a person, it will change his face and may say how nasty it is. But if he see a piece of that animal meat in a beautiful pakage, he will say wow how nice this meat is. People don’t want to know how that animal is killed in the industries. . If most of the people love something to eat, It is almost impossible and very hard to stop from that.
