I happen to come across a fact I found hard to believe...."Because McDonald's initially did not want its customers to stay and socialize, they prohibited newspaper boxes, candy machines, telephones, pinball machines, jukeboxes, and other types of entertainment. They also installed uncomfortable chairs to deter customers from lingering" there is a few other facts that might also catch your attention click on the lick and see what else I came across....http://facts.randomhistory.com/2009/06/27_fast-food.html.

welcome to my blog

Hey everybody,

      My name is Dahriana Correa and I am a 19 year old who hardly cooks, not because I don't like to do so but because I really don't know how to. I actually prefer doing the shopping and letting my roommate do the cooking. To me going food shopping its an interesting adventure. There is so many different types of foods and brands at the supermarket sometimes is hard to even pick one simple can of corn.
      Although I don't know how to cook a large variety of things I like going to the supermarket and just picking random ingredients to see what I can come up with at home. Believe it or not, it usually turns out pretty good, I even impress myself sometimes.
       Since my great creations don't always take place, at home we eat typical Spanish food, rice and beans with what ever meat is in the fridge. honestly is not my favorite thing to eat. I highly enjoy eating pasta. Fettuccine Alfredo to be exact.
       honestly I have no clue where or how all the food is processed nor where it exactly comes from but I'm looking forward on finding out. Because honestly speaking I am a very big fan of food don't know what i would do without it. But anyways that's enough about me and what I like to do and eat. I will like to let you know that this blog was created for my Ethics of Food class. This is actually my first assignment and I am very excited to learn all the great information this course has to offer. I am also excited to be able to share my thoughts with you guys and get feedback on how you all feel about them. I hope you guys like it, and thanks for taking the time to read my very first blog.
