Ann Cooper and her proposals

I learned many different facts about what is being fed to our kids in their schools. Some of the information I already knew about because of Fast Food Nation such as all the advertisement toward children. However some facts that surprised me was that 10 companies control all the grocery stores. I was also surprised to find that more money is spent on keeping prisoners in jail than feeding our children. I also did not know that pesticides were doubled. This kind of makes me depressed that children are brought up in an unhealthy enviornment and can easily be getting diabetes and might not even outlive us. I thought the video was interesting and Cooper made a very informative and persuasive speech. I can not use this information in my paper however because I am not focusing on children for my research.
