Good Food/ Bad Food Writing Response

After reading all five articles and watching the documentary Fathead, you become more aware of the debate over the weight struggles of many Americans, where some have labeled it an "obesity epidemic." Based on the research and information from these sources, should the government have a say in our diets?

Part 1: Argue one side of this issue, using at least TWO properly documented pieces of evidence from the reviewed sources.

Part 2: Explain one argument of the other side's point of view, identifying at least TWO pieces of evidence they employ, properly documented, and discuss the flaws and shortcomings of this argument.

These WILL be uploaded to TURNITIN.COM and we will vote and post to DEBATE.ORG
