Recipe & Analysis
Healthy Rasta Pasta Meal
1. (1 serving)
- Steamed broccoli
(1/4 cup)
- Rotini
noodles (bowl)
- Small-diced
carrots (1/5 cup)
- Loose corn
(1/7 cup)
- Black
pepper (3 pinches)
- Parmesan
cheese (5 pinches)
- Garlic
butter sauce (3 spoons)
Steps....
• Boil
noodles at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes until they are soft
• Steam
broccoli with black pepper, small diced carrots and corn in a pot for about 10
minutes
• Drain
noodles after soft, and mix noodles with the broccoli, carrots and corn
• Sprinkle Parmesan
cheese over the meal
a. I'd
say that the majority of the food is processed, because I had to chop and remove the outside
layer of the
carrots, and cut the broccoli. I bought the corn loose
as it was, but I assume it was processed because corn comes from cob, they are attached,
and so the company shaved the corn off of the cob. I am not sure about the
noodles, but more than likely it is processed.
b. The Caloric
count is 140, 5 grams of sugar (a lot, did not realize that), 8 grams of fat (I
think its a lot with 4.5 of that being saturated fat. That is mostly
likely from animals. Saturated fat is greasy, or oily and that’s understandable
because this meal was pasta that had garlic BUTTER sauce. My body will store some of the
sugar that it got from the meal, and eject what it does not need into the
liver. 3,500 calories is stored in your body for when you are not active.
This is the body's way of saving energy that is mean o be burned off, it not,
then it stays stored can most likely will be hard to "unstore".
c.
If I were to eat nothing but this meal everyday, then I would not be getting
the OTHER essentials that my body needs, and my body would get tired of the
same fats, oils, sugars, etc.
d.
I think that my ingredients didn’t come from that far because I only have farming
veggies and noodles. The veggies can get old fast, and if traveling from a far,
that more dangerous or more aware you want to be about your food. So I think
mine came from the far east coast of the U.S. My corn/broccoli/carrots came
from a farm in Minneapolis, from a company called Green Giant. I was close.
They came more so from the Middle Western part of the U.S. where they have that
more of a hot weather and requirements to actually farm.
e. This
meal costs, $4.79. Compared to other junk and fatty foods, this meal costs less
than a meal from McDonalds where those meals there can be $ 5.00 and
unsurprisingly higher. However, a person can benefit more from just my meal. It
is owned by General Mills.
f. From a company, they add a lot of preservatives, and fertilizer rather than just you growing your own food. Companies advertise differently in order to attract hungry consumers. They say things to make a consumer want to buy from them. They have commercial ads that supposedly show where they are producing the broccoli, how, where it’s being packaged to etc, just to make the consumer feel comfortable.
My role in the larger food system consists of different views. For me, the way that the food system is treating what and me I am receiving is OK. Mainly because the side effects of fracking aren’t affecting me directly, is why I am ok with it. Also, the way that our food is preserved, companies use too much of this, and too less of that. Too may cloned, plants that isn’t what the mother of nature provided freshly from nothing. My food has to be cloned. The sound is very uncomfortable. However, if I were the resident of a house who lived in an area that was being bombarded by frackers, and that effected my physically, and the food, there would not be one pinch of happiness within me. I would not even want to stay at my house to fight the system because I would already be disgusted that it has already begun. Then again, if I was the system, I would do what I have to do in order to better the country. As for the whole western diet. SMH. It is a matter of a person. The person who has that overweight problem has to be motivated in order to take action to change their weight. Is the problem that they are not being motivated enough? They take death lightly? Why is that?

I will build,
and then later on play the Flute for my group presentation. Our objective is to
build an instrument, and then play it for our class. There are obstacles that
we need to do such as calculation and such in order to do this. I researched
the background of the Flute. To play the flute and produce
sound, someone will have to blow through a hole at the end of the Flute and
while blowing, there would be holes at the other end of the Flute where the
persons fingers will be covering the holes and uncovering the holes based on
what notes that they want to play, and to change the notes. The Flute is a basic pipe; it can have
either one fixed end or two loose ends. It also has holes that are different
lengths from the hole at the opposite end, which is where the person blows
into. When i think about myself playing the Flute in order to
change the sound, i will have to simply practice where at what time my fingers
cover and uncover certain notes (the holes at the opposite end of the blow in
hole). Compared to waves, the size of the flute, and where the
holes are, determines the sound outcome. As the notes changes, the notes change
as well

Energy
from the air molecules transfer into the hole that is blown through, and they
vibrate within the Flute, and as that happen, having the notes at the other end
of the Flute either covered or uncovered, the Flute vibrations actually turns
into sound. In order to change the pitch, the notes that are on the Flute are
the holes. The hole that is farthest away from where it is to be blown into is
the lowest note. The hole closest
to where we have to blow in the holes to produce sound makes the highest pitch.
So to change the pitch, simply change the notes. I will just use my fingers in
order to play this instrument. I will play my instrument based off of the songs
notes. If a note indicated that
have to play note A, then ill have to use one of my fingers to cover up the A
note. To build this instrument, I will have to have a PVC pipe for the flute structure
itself, duck tape to have a fixed end flute by covering one side of the pipe,
and a drill to drill holes where the notes will be.
