Grocery Store and Habitual Food

I think that my family uses the grocery store in a positive way because both my father and mother shop at Whole Foods/Gourmet Garage meaning that all of our food in the fridge is organic and not processed and has a better quality then most other foods. I think that ever since i was little my father and mother did a good job raising me to eat my veggies and fruits, etc. Today in class we were talking about " what is a good way to raise your child to like and eat vegetables?" and there where some classmates saying that its not all about how one is raised, well i would like to argue and say that it does have to do with the way your raised and feed. If your brought up with a bunch of junk food and nothing healthy in the house, your child is most likely to grow up eating junk food. Well with my mom she made sure there was NONE of that in the kitchen and i think it worked out well because today i eat healthy.

I do agree that grocery stores push particular types of products such as what they put at eye level. if you notice all the name brands and "favorites" are at eye level so that people buy it because they see that product first. I think that they put all of the artificial products in the eye view because people tend to love the taste of artificial foods, and then come back to buy more = more business. It is actually funny that we are doing this unit right now because i have decided to go on a mini diet for the summer time. So its good that I'm learning all this new stuff about what is healthy and what is not , because i can take note of it and act on it! One bad habit that i have about my meals is that for lunch i tend to eat unhealthy because all my friends go to the food places around our school that aren't healthy and i end up going too and eat badly. But recently Ive gone to get a salad and meet up with them wherever they are eating.
