Fries

So this whole school week I have been out with the stomach bug so not much progress has been made with my projet unfortunately. Last weeks survey didn't happen because there were substitutes in the library at the end of the week and today is Thursday and I will not have time to do it tomorrow. 
My mom sent me an article from thealternativedaily.com that was about how McDonalds makes their fries. The article is called "The 14 ingredients in McDonalds fries revealed (Note the Natural Beef Flavor)" I am not going to lie to you, I love Mcdonalds fries and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying because lets face it they're delicious. We also all know that they aren't healthy for us. Why aren't they healthy? "They're fatty" Oh no no no that is the least of your worries after reading this article. I am only going to touch on a few of these 14 ingredients, the first two being canola and soybean oil. both of which are most likely GMO and canola oil can double and an insecticide. Dextrose which is a form of sugar is sprinkled on the fries. Although sugar isn't totally unhealthy,why is it being put on my fries? Finally they add Dimethylpolysiloxane AKA silly putty. It isn't like unadulterated silly putty but it is an anti foaming agent added in silly putty and fries. It can also be found in sealants and lubricants. This allows there to be small amounts of formaldehyde to be present in the fries. AWESOME!!!!
This is why I'm doing this as my project, because this information is seldom known and I want everyone to know what is being put in what they are consuming. On a side note I have a "GMO notebook" where I will be taking notes and recording where I get all my information from.
