What is the Omnivore's Dilemma?
The Omnivore's Dilemma is something that we all face in our everyday life. Its when we we make a decision of whether or not we the food that we are eating. iIts all about chooseing the right food. When i was reading the "Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan , he stated that when he took the mushroom home, he later then took out his field guides to see if it was a wild mushroom or not. But when he look it up he notice that evereything matched up except for the texture. he including that,"how could i tell the if the gills i was looking at were thin or thick one." (286)You cant just judge something just by looking at it. Right there Pollan didn't know who to trust. his good old friend Angelo who since to know a lot about the wild life or the field guide that he got.
Pollan later stated,"I didn't realize it at the time, but i had impaled myself that afternoon on the horns of the omnivore's dilemma." (286)
Last week when i red one of my peers work, learn that yoplait light has 40 more calories than Dannon yogurt. This weekend when i went to the supermarket i dint know with one to pick. When you saw the word light i thought that it have less calories but look at the back in fine print,you can see that it has 100 calories and on the front in big and bold letters you see the word light. As they say " you cant judge a book by it color". so i ended up with the Dannon that has 60 calories.
