Escape from the Western Diet. Literature & Language Essay (Essay Sample)

Assignment 15
1) SRA (short reading assignment 2) - Read in book, “Escape from the Western Diet,” by Michael Pollan, pages 420-427. You may start your summary simply in this way: "Escape from the Western Diet," by Michael Pollan, is about...
2) Write a one page paper, double-spaced, that summarizes the main ideas of this essay (like you did in Assignment 5). I want to see, most of all, if you can summarize this essay and say what the writer of the essay has to say. What does Pollan say is wrong with the Western diet (just for reference, the USA is a Western country, as opposed to Eastern countries such as those in Asia)? What does he suggest we should eat? You don't have to express your opinion at all in your summary, in fact, but you may give your opinion at the end of the essay in a couple of sentences at most. First, and above all, your job is to summarize the facts of the essay. Again, you do not have to understand every single thing Pollan talks about for you to do this assignment.
Finally, your one page does not include the space for your name and class and such things. Do a good, complete job here -- you are almost finished! You can do it. Take time.
SUBMIT your summary.
