According the Dole video we watched in class, each banana is taken care of exactly the same and the process has to be perfect or it will be started all over again. In addition, they made it seem like the workers were not mad and doing what they liked to do.

In this article it is describing a fungus that is spreading and damaging bananas worldwide, one of the largest banana companies- Chiquita, is downplaying the risk of the fungus even though it is said to be deadly and could bring a big downturn in the banana market.
The difference here is that in the video they say that the bananas are perfect and then in contrast some have become infected by this fungus and it starts in the roots. BE CAREFUL!

Blog #3: My Food Choices
I usually choose to eat foods that I find delicious, healthy doesn't really come into play unless I am eating with my mother or when I feel like having a little fruit. My favorite foods range from nachos to pasta and salmon and finally to chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream.
My food relates to sustainability because of how it is made and where it is made. If it is in a clean place and how it affects the world. Also how it plays a part in peoples health.
