Document Summary

Eat food, mostly plants, not too much: a persuasive speech. Specific purpose: the purpose of this speech is to persuade my peers and professor not to eat edible food-like substances. Thesis: the food today is very different than what it used to be. This change is having a great impact on our health. Citizens of the united states have two options when it comes to choosing their diet: the western diet which consists of a variety of edible food-like substances or the more beautiful, healthful path that consists of real unprocessed foods. Credibility statement: going grocery shopping with my mom a young child was more mentally stimulating than taking the act (before i even knew what the act was). If i wanted fruit snacks or oreos or any food that had nutrition facts label; i was first required to read and pronounce all the ingredients correctly before she allowed me to add to cart.
