His arguments are strong enough to convince the situation according to his thought. Opinions may differ as to how persuasive these arguments are, but his statistics about diabetes suggest a definite health risk. These arguments also support his larger point that lawsuits against such companies are justified. I believe that Coziness’s argument about the food companies is right because a lot of companies will not show accurate labels on food. For example, when we see the calories on any sugar free soda or food packages, it says that 0% or O gram sugar which is not right in real.
They show that O amount for just a sip f soda or a bite of food but when they make such product they do use sugar to make it which is not clearly mentioned on labels. That’s why even though a diabetic person will drink sugar free soda, he will still get sugar level in blood. This is my personal experience which makes me think about Coziness’s argument about false labels. 2. Write two different summaries of David Coziness’s “Don’t Blame the Eater”.

Summary 2 David Zincked introduced the concept in his article, “Don’t Blame the Eater. ” He states that many frequent eaters of fast food are beginning to sue the franchise because they are now considered obese due to the fast food restaurant. Fast food industries are serving food high in calorie, cholesterol, and trans fat. They do giving the customer an option of eating healthy. David Zincked is correct in stating that fast food industries try to cover up the angers of their food.
It is hard to comprehend or even find a calorie chart in the restaurant. In their advertisements they shy away from the dangers of their food. However, placing a lawsuit on the company may be a little bit extreme. It is common knowledge that fast food is not a healthy selection and that you should not eat their regularly.
