Write two reviews: one of a chapter from Fast Food Nation and one of your essay from Lesson 2; you'll evaluate both using the same criterion, or standard. Then you'll revise your Lesson 2 essay based on what you've discovered. Your essay should include the following elements:
A review of a single chapter from Fast Food Nation that summarizes it objectively and evaluates it according to a criterion of your choice
A review of your Lesson 2 essay based on the same criterion; this review should also start with an objective summary
An essay with all the content required in Lesson 2, including five credible sources and a thesis statement, but revised to fix any weaknesses you found in your review
A works-cited page that lists all the sources according to MLA guidelines
You should have completed a draft of this assignment in the activity before this one. If you haven't done so, go back and complete that activity now.

Ask yourself these questions as you revise:
Do both of my reviews begin with an objective summary that avoids opinionated language?
Do both of my reviews end with an evaluation based on the same criterion (such as use of evidence or organization)?

Do I correct problems in my Lesson 2 essay that I pointed out while writing my review? Do I also correct problems that my teacher identified in this essay? Do I follow all the same requirements from Lesson 2?
Do I avoid plagiarism by quoting, paraphrasing, and citing sources correctly?
Does my works-cited page list all the sources that I cite in my essay? Does it follow MLA guidelines?
Does my essay have a professional style and an objective tone? What about my reviews?

Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal is a book written by Eric Schlosser and was published on January 17, 2001. The purpose of the book is to express the author's concern about the impact this industry has on children in the United States. The book has ten chapters divided into two parts: the American way (American meat), (meat and potatoes), and an epilogue.
In the first part, Eric Schlosser covers the growth of fast-food chains after World War II and industry for the history of men such as obesity, classism, the global imperialism of the United States of America, and environmental devastation. He talks about how the economic and lucrative power, wealth, and stability of American companies and government are more important than the well-being of the American people. Schlosser says “People who smoke crack know the political dangers; people who eat hamburgers don’t ” stating that fast food is as deadly as one of the world's most dangerous drugs.
In the second part, he exposes the development of the flavors industry describing how they were detected in the laboratories and how they are not "natural". In addition, he describes in detail the conditions of work of the slaughterhouses of cattle, the lack of security in them, and the lack of laws that protect these workers, who are mostly illegal immigrants from Mexico and Guatemala who live in fear of Those deported to their countries. He even talks about the effects on the health of consumers and how the meat industry creates lower wages and unfavorable conditions for workers in slaughterhouses. Although the fast-food industry generates millions of jobs annually, they are of a partial nature and with the highest employee turnover in the entire United States and with the minimum training.
Schlosser's way of wording phrases ties the book together. In a subtle but firm way, the book shows the harsh reality of the fast-food industry. This book has opened my eyes and will continue to open millions more.
