Intro:
Organic foods have been a hot topic for quite
some time now, but how can we know if a company is really telling us the truth
about their practices? Looking at the article “Big Organic” by Michael Pollan,
my eyes were truly opened to the controversial topic. Pollan illuminates his view
on the matter by giving examples of different “organic” products, going back
through the history of how the products came to be, and by showing how
companies give their products a story to appeal to the consumer. All of these
things go into the ethos, logos, and pathos of Whole Foods products. This also then goes into analyzing our own expectations of the food and prices and then realizing what is actually possible in today's world.

I like what you have going on. I feel like your thesis could be a little bit stronger. It is very unclear. What you are talking about is clear but the way it is phrased is very confusing. I had a hard time just understanding the thesis.
ReplyDeleteYour idea is really good. I would consider condensing your thesis into one solid sentence. Also, use quotes for your points because there are some good ones in the text to support you. I'd also consider defining pathos, ethos and, and logos in your intro.
