Peer Response: Joy's Blog

Joy's blog discussed about how she prepared a meal for her family this past weekend. She talks about the convenience of having all the ingredients and how much her family enjoyed her well prepared meal. She talks about the enjoyment of food and not just about getting the necessary nutrients in food. Her family and herself actually enjoyed the food which goes along with how she talks about disagreeing with the claim that Pollan makes that people don't take pleasure in eating food anymore. I agree with Joy completely because it's not that Americans don't enjoy the food or try to savor it, but rather the people around them make food more compelling. If the envornment and people around you when you eat is cherry and upbeat then food always taste so much better because you are truly enjoying yourself.
