So about a month later my family had started to eat my candy and I wasn’t to mad at that time, at least it wasn’t to the point to where it was gone in 60 seconds. Well as soon as I thought it wasn’t so bad my Uncle David came over and ate half of them and I started to become annoyed by the fact three pieces of my candy were left and it was only Tuesday. So I take 5 dollars of my money and go to the store to get some more. Thankfully they had a 2 bags for 5 dollars deal so that’s what I got. So I get home and I eat a quarter of one of the bags so I still had a lot left over. So after 2 weeks I had bought 10 bags of tootsie rolls, and I finally said ok, I’m gonna hide a perfect stash in my room and make a nasty stash in the candy bowl, but what am I gonna put in those candies? I decided to put 5 drops of lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of water on them. I started to unwrap all of them and started putting …show more content…

I responded boldly with an I don’t know why they are so nasty. Maybe It was just that one, you should try another, so he did and repeated the process and I finally said please do not eat my candy, I would also like to enjoy some also. My Uncle David never ate a piece of candy out of our bowl again. And I started to take the bads ones and give them out for Halloween and ow man was that

The addictive food that is sold by supermarkets is made to appeal to the consumers’ taste and make them addicted to it. In Michael Moss’ “The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food,” he mentions that the potato chip is a snack that provides a feeling of pleasure as well as a rewarding sensation in the brain through its coating of salt and fat (490). Small details food companies put in the food make a difference in the taste, which tends to attract more consumers without them aware of how they are being addicted to the food. In food companies’ perspective, the engineering of food to add more flavor and attract more consumers has no issue since it is how companies make their profits. Stephen Sanger, head of General Mills and the Yoplait brand, was able to produce $500 million in revenue from a new dessert that originated from the yogurt since it maintains a nutritive image with consumers (Moss 475-476).

For my second experiential learning assignment, I decided to break a social norm while going out to eat with my family at a restaurant: granted this is something I have a habit of doing but the reaction I got from my dining mates was particularly interesting this time. To give a little bit of background of the setting I was in at the time, I was with my mother, younger brother, and my mother’s friend at a restaurant in DC for my birthday dinner. The restaurant was crowded, but not many people were paying attention to what we were doing. The behavior I decided to break was dipping my fingers in the container caramel was in and then proceeded lick my fingers after doing so.
