The author's claim in "Factory Food" is that today's food and food of recent years is of poor quality and that now more and more people are becoming aware of that. His reasons for this claim are that the conditions in which animals are raised are unnatural and unhealthy for the animals. Cows are fed nearly poisonous feed and thousands of chickens are cooped up together at two massive plants. This causes the food we eat to contain less natural vitamins and proteins. Overall the recalls that have been happening due to this drop in quality has alerted the American public and turned people on to this problem. Overall the author does a solid job of supporting his points, however his argument is too general and elementary. He does not convince me to care about the issue more so then just being slightly concerned that what I am eating is bad for me.
