I also really like this poster because it shows a baby with stretching arms for burgers. I think it shows (American flag baby diapers) how American kids now days are growing up to be fast food eaters and how that all relates to childhood obesity and just obesity in general. It also gets me thinking about different ways that we can prevent childhood obesity and obesity in America.

I like this commercial because it really makes us think about what kind of items are in the fast food that we eat. In terms of what kind of meat and how they are processed. The commercial relates the burgers to funny parts of our body and such things. Also the fact that the couple is driving a hybrid but eats at a fast food restaurant is kind of interesting.
The baby in the picture is so lovely. And the baby is wearing American flag diapers. I agree with your point that it shows American kids are going to eat fast food a lot. And fast food results in obesity. We should eat less fast food and get more healthy food instead.
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with your point on the poster with the baby. I think it does symbolize what kind of society we live in and how at all ages we are getting very accustomed to always eating fast food. I think this would make for a great subject.

ReplyDeleteLooking at your sources, I think that either of them would work extremely well for your assignment. They're both manageable in scope, and they both deal with the similar issue of America's fast food consumption not being the healthiest for the nation. The poster might be slightly easier to analyse, since it has a very clear polemical agenda. If you do go for it, you may want to glance through the other blogs, since some of your fellow classmates are doing the same poster and have some good ideas about it.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely have a tougher time writing about the Subway commercial, though it is entertaining. I think that even though a few other people in the class have posters from Fast Food Nation, the poster would produce a better paper.
