Arguments and Fallacies


Recently, investigators have pointed out that one result of our overabundant, overmarketed food supply is an increase in the amounts of food sold and consumed at any one time. Larger portions have more calories, and people tend to eat more when confronted with large amounts of food.

In the public there is a surprising conceptual gap: a virtual absence of intuitive understanding that larger portions contribute more calories. Most people seem to view a soft drink as a soft drink, no matter how big it is. When it is explained that a 64-ounce soft drink container could provide as much as 800 calories, audiences gasp. If we want to reverse the obesity epidemic, we must get this point across, perhaps by demanding visible calorie labeling in restaurants and fast food establishments, and other policies that address the environment of food choice.

The perfect place to initiate such policies is in our schools. Healthy eating habits start early. Schools are the main providers of away-from-home meals for school- ged children and adolescents, followed by fast food restaurants. Portion sizes of National School Lunch program (NSLP) meals are generally consistent with the serving sizes recommended in the USDA Food Guide Pyramid. However, there are increasing numbers of food and beverage options at school from which students choose their meals and snacks. No nutrition standards apply to these foods, and most are high in fat and sugar, and therefore in total calories. Many of these foods tend to be made available in large portion sizes, similar to those served in restaurants or available in the retail sector. We need to engage a group of students, parents, school officials and community leaders to develop standards that address portion sizes for all foods available on school campuses. This will send a clear message to students that healthy eating is a priority for the school and community. It will also provide an environment that supports healthy choices by students.

I. Invasion of the Body Snatchers:
Have you noticed a change in the world around you recently? Have you seen how more and more people are walking around with little rectangles in their hands or pockets with long wires plugged straight into their ears? At the grocery store yesterday, I counted at least twenty people completely lost in the music provided by their ever-present cell phones. It’s as if the old science-fiction movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers was coming true; we are being overtaken by pod people. So at the risk of appearing to be a crotchety old man complaining about the “good ole days,” I have to make a stance against the evil influences of the cell phone and ear-bud phenomena on our society.

II. A Rational and Well-Thought Out Fear:
Now, I am not a Luddite; I have no desire to go around smashing up every cell phone or technological gadget in sight. I enjoy and benefit from technological advances just like everyone else. I have a microwave, a television, a lap-top computer, and a gas stove, and I use them all practically every day. I am not accusing people listening to music on their cell phones of having detrimental effects upon our society because I hate music either. I profoundly do not hate music—but I do, ridiculous as it sounds, hate when cell phones are used to block out the real world.

III. The Dangers and Distractions of Ear Buds:
People who have ear buds in their ears simply cannot hear danger approaching. All they hear is the pretend soundtrack of their lives. People walking with ear buds in cannot hear a dog dashing up behind them nor can they hear the footsteps of a thief or murderer sneaking up behind him or her either. People who drive their cars with ear buds plugged in their ears (an act that is considered a traffic violation in many states) cannot hear a child screaming or a horn blowing in warning. Cell phones are known to be a factor in many car accidents. I won’t even mention how distracting ear buds plugged into a cell phone can be for a student in a classroom setting! We basically have handed a device to students that invites them to not pay attention to the real world around them.

IV. Narcissism:
Beyond just being distracting and dangerous, ear buds are detrimental and damaging to society as a whole. Ear buds work against a community of listeners. Everyone is walking all over the neighborhood, plugged into their latest favorite playlist, but no one is talking to anyone. People who are addicted to their ear buds don’t care about other people. They don’t want community and contact with the real world. Ear buds also actively destroy live musicians' ability to make a living with their art form. No one wants live music anymore when they can pay less to hear it instantly and privately anytime they want. If we don’t curb our use of ear buds, all our musicians will languish and no new music will be developed.

V. Toss Them In the Trash!
People refuse to recognize the danger of ear buds because they simply love their ear buds too much to give them up. Ear buds are probably doing serious physical damage to their inner eardrums or even the brain itself, but apparently that doesn’t bother anyone. I shudder to think of what the future will be like if we continue on the path of ear bud dependence we’re traveling. Next time you’re tempted to plug
