Completing a good writing assignment requires the ability to concentrate. When I prepare to write, I have to make sure that I have one of my favorite snacks with me, a bag of chips. Whereas chips may not be considered the healthiest snack choice, they come in so many varieties, they are a comfort food, they help me to relax and they help me concentrate, which permits me to become more productive in my writing. How can I refuse such a helpful and great tasting snack? When I go to my local grocery store called ‘Giant’ to purchase my chips, the varieties offered, almost seem endless. They come in so many different forms of chips, it’s like I just stepped through the bright gold gates of chip heaven. Whatever kind of chip that I was in the mood …show more content…
Just like there is a song for everything, there is a chip for everything as well. You can find anywhere from nacho cheese, salt, and pepper or salt and vinegar, mango salsa, cool ranch, wasabi flavored, crab, barbecue, plain and they even have chocolate covered potato chips! The possibilities are literally endless. Personally, my go-to flavor of the chips is normally something salty, like ‘Salt and Vinegar’, however, I also love the taste of a savory chip, such as ‘Barbeque’ as well. With these two fairly different taste, I had to find something to balance out both of my desires. So with that being said, my favorite sort of chips are the ‘Carolina Style Barbeque’. The combination of the savory and flavorful barbecue mixed with vinegar and all topped off with salt is so tasty that it’s like every time I put a chip in my mouth, it’s dancing the tango on my …show more content…
Of course, If I look at an assignment for instance and I feel that it may be a little challenging, just by me feeling that it’s going to be a challenge tells you that it’s something I’ve never exercised before or something that I’m not comfortable with. It takes time for you to be comfortable doing something that isn’t a part of a normal routine. It takes a great deal of practice, faith, and trust to feel comfortable about your writing ability too. Do I like to remain within my comfort zone? Of course, I do, who doesn't? But, sometimes stepping outside of your comfort zone can honestly be the best conclusion you can make. Writing has given me the chance to step outside of my comfort zone and to learn more about
The company is driven by a strong set of values, even if some of those decisions increase its costs internally. This is especially the case with the sourcing of its ingredients and meats. In fact, the high-quality ingredients and advanced cooking methods used by Chipotle are second to no other fast-food chain. Among recent developments, the leader in fast-casual dining concepts plans to become absolutely GMO-free by the end of 2014. Although the aim is not new, it shows Chipotle’s commitment to bring fresh ingredients to the table. Besides offering high-quality meals to its customers, the portions are generously sized and the value is unmatched. There are very few places that can fill you up for less that $10 with quality food, and not junk. The triad of fresh, pure ingredients, cutting-edge cooking methods, and tremendous portions gives Chipotle a mouthwatering appeal.
Everyone wants their food to taste superb when going out to eat. Both restaurants served excellent homemade chips and salsas as well as queso dip. Reading the menu to order was no problem and both places had a wide variety of options to choose...
Chipotle’s cuisine is Mexican. Their menu consists of burritos, tacos, burrito bowls, and salads prepared with fresh ingredients employing classic cooking methods. The customer proceeds down an assembly line choosing the various components of their meal as they proceed. They have recently created a children’s menu offering smaller portion sizes. They offer three types of meats: chicken, beef, and pork. Condiments include fajita vegetables, rice, two types of beans, four different salsas, sour cream, cheese, guacamole, and lettuce.
"Consumer trends are changing, which we believe is a great result of people becoming more discerning about where their food comes from, how it was raised, and how their meal was prepared. The continued loyalty we see from our customers, as well as third party research, and the growing number of concepts imitating Chipotle, all point to the relevance of our vision and the impact we are having on food culture. We are delighted to see that this vision, a very lofty goal, is becoming a
§ Consumer household penetration increased from 12 percent in 1983 to 20 percent in 1984, driven largely by placing cheese dips near salty snacks. The association between chips and dips was conveyed in promotions and in shelf placement.
The most common theory to the invention of potato chips is that George was working at his restaurant when a customer complained that his french fried potatos were sliced too thick. George was annoyed at the customer thus he decided to annoy the customer back by slicing the potatos too thin to eat with a fork then his sister accidentally dropped it into the fryer. George served it to the customer but didn't get the reaction he was looking for. Instead, the customer was extremely pleased
The fries people eat today are so unnatural that each fast food place has a different taste. "Their distinctive taste does not stem from the type of potatoes, that McDonald’s buys, the technology that processes them, or the restaurant equipment that fries them"(Schlosser 119). McDonald’s and other companies use fries now with distinguished taste, one that is different than its competitor. They also put chemicals in other things like their milk shakes and burgers. Almost everything there is chemically enhanced.
Food is an important factor in the everyday human life. Humans need food to be able to live. But how did the food people eat today come about, no one really knows the in depth explanation. What about more common foods that are a part of everyone’s everyday lives, like potato chips. They are a simple, easy snack food that is commonly in every American household. But does anyone know how they came about, who invented them. Well, let me explain a little about who that person was.
There is always one creepy house on the street, this house is Mr. Frazier. I need to find a way to sneak in to Mr. Frazier’s house alexander said. Maybe I can use dads ladder to climb in to Mr. Frazier back window. Alexander climbed up to the back window. Bing pow boom bark bark bark! Alexander falls down the ladder. I have to find a way to get rid of those dogs.
But this is only the beginning of this systemic issue. Not only are today’s families far less active, but easy access to rich-tasting, cheap food can be addictive. The fast food industry knows this and uses this information to make foods that make the brain crave more. In his book Salt Sugar Fat, author Michael Moss discusses this in an interview with food scientist Steve Witherly. “He ticked off a dozen attributes of the Cheetos that make the brain say more.
Identity-“Ones personal qualities.”Identiy is something only he or she can fully define. My uncle says I am affectionate,cheerful, and calm. My grandmother sees me as slim, pretty and sweet. My dad described me as perky, cheerful and happy, my mom says beautiful, gentle, and self-conscious. These adjectives describe me accurately, yet they are only abstract versions of me. Adjectives cannot begin to describe me and I aknowlege these descriptions for what they are, a condensed translation from my outward self to the world. It is impossible for anyone to understand me completely because nobody has experienced the things I have. My mother has never cherished a raggedy doll named Katie and my father never spent hours upon hours making collages and scrap books for his future children. My uncle never hid in the back of a pick-up-truck and traveled four hours to New York and my grandmother has never walked hours in the rain looking for the Queen of England. My identity is something only I can define.

I personally do not enjoy writing like most people would feel about reading a dictionary. I am cautiously treading water with every word I type. I have always found writing to be a tedious process. I have never found ease in wording something the way I want to; therefore, it usually sounds so much better in my head. I’ve never considered myself to be comfortable with writing in general. For example, I always had a hard time telling if I needed a comma in a sentence or not. Sometimes it was obvious, but it seems more confusing most of the time.
Since industrialization in early America, the food industry has been growing, and with the development of prepackaged foods and fast-food chains, having snacks at your fingertips is a luxury that seems convenient and beneficial… until one considers the effects of junk food on the body and brain. Generally, junk food is characterized as food with high fat and sugar content and minimal nutritional value (Karimi-Shahanjarini et al., 2012). In modern day America, it is common to arrive home from a long day at school or work and grab a conveniently prepackaged snack to quiet your munchies and calm your nerves. Although this seems like a harmless act, eating these snack foods can have negative effects on the body and brain.
At a restaurant called Moon's Lake House in Saratoga Spring, New York, potato chip was invented by a chef named George Crum in 1853. Potato chips are thin slices of potato, fried quickly in oil and then salted. It quickly became popular around the world. Manufacturers depend on their stored supplies of potatoes, which are kept at a constant temperature, until several weeks before they are to be used.
