3 Forms of Food Borne Illness  Listeria  E. coli  Salmonella  Staph Bacteria  Hepatitis A 3

4 Thesis  Most Authors agree that the common person is not well educated about how to prevent and treat food borne illness.

5 Authors Reasons  Many people are not informed about how to prevent food borne illnesses.  If someone has a food borne illness people don’t know how to get rid of them.  When people get food borne illnesses its usually from foods that come from other countries, and in a certain incident it came from, food that was grown in America and it was a huge shock to people.

Food Safety  Authors Position- Food Borne Illness are an increasingly important health issue. Governments all over the world are intensifying efforts to improve food safety. These efforts are a response to increasing number of food safety problems.  Statistics- “76 million cases of food borne disease, resulting in 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths, are estimated to occur each year”  Repetition- Repetition of the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION  Appeal to Emotion- 5,000 deaths occur each year 6

7 How to Prevent Them  Author’s position People are not taking the necessary steps to preventing food borne illnesses.  Rhetorical Devices Appeal to emotion “...can develop a a life- threatening form of kidney failure.” Appeal to reason with statistics “36,000 pounds of ground turkey packed by Cargill were recalled because of salmonella contamination Loaded Words (contamination, antibiotic resistant, deadly, etc.) 7

8 Cantaloupes  Rhetorical strategies  Loaded words: “killed”, “deadliest food-borne outbreak”, ‘sickened”  Tone – Persuasive  Appeal to Reason – “The current outbreak, caused by cantaloupes grown in Colorado, has sickened more than 70 people and killed at least 13, making this the deadliest food-borne outbreak in the United States in more than a decade”.  Authors Purpose – to show that food borne illnesses don’t always come from foods from other countries it can come from America also.
