Food Additives What can possibly go wrong?
Pros and Cons of food additives by Jeremy Neese
Some kid is eating some cereal for breakfast. He starts choking and getting a rash. this is all from some sort of food additive.
There are many purposes of food additives. They help to preserve the food longer. They prevent mold from growing on the produce. It also holds the food together like peanut butter. They also help us get our daily vitamins and minerals. That was some of the good things that food additives do. There are many good things that can come food additives and they should use them. I got the info from here. http://www.thefreelibrary.com/PROS+AND+CONS+OF+FOOD+ADDITIVES-a079515236
There are some problems with it though. For starters they have been linked to temper with children. Also many kids are allergic to the different food additives. This means that there are still many different kinds of problems with food additives. The problems out weigh the goods in this case. My resources arehttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-453431/The-proof-food-additives-ARE-bad-feared.html
My opinion is that we should not use the food additives yet. They present many problems and until we fix them we should not use them. Some of the problems are allergic reactions, problems with children tempers, and there are even some that increase the risk of cancer so avoid this additive Acesulfame K. Now you know the facts so stop using food additives.

Your article was very good! I liked how you have many facts to back up your information. Your essay was very interesting but your resources weren’t linked to other websites. Aside from that, your article was very good and I learned things about food additives that I never knew before. Great job, Jeremy.

Your article lacked multiple things. One of the things it is lacking are solid facts that would change the mind of the reader if he or she was for the use of additives. I thought that your opening thought was somewhat affective at persuading the reader to think twice about the use of additives. Overall it was a decent article.

Thank you for your comment. I don’t know why the links didn’t work. I am glad you learned things. I hope you think before you use food additives.

Sorry my essay was not as good as you would have liked. I though my facts were pretty solid. I understand that some of them wouldn’t change your mind but increase risk for cancer would be enough for me. I am glad my opening statement was good.

Jeremy,
In my opinion, you could have done a more complete job of presenting your argument. More research and examples would have helped bring your point across more effectively.
