I’m not particularly sure about what makes an essay great. From what I can tell from this article, that’s about 5,000 words long, is that it’s very relatable. And the whole article does explain a lot of things that a normal person would understand with basic knowledge. The way it’s written is for the general public, it isn’t towards a particular audience therefore, it’s easy to read. Another thing that I think the article/essay talked about was not only the problem of “clean eating” but, also addressing other problems that many people feel together.
“Among other things, clean eating confirms how vulnerable and lost millions of us feel about diet – which really means how lost we feel about our own bodies.” With this quote, I believe that many people related to it. Everyone’s conscious about how we look, and I think that it has to do with not only our society but, also with media. Media, itself, is narcissistic. Everyone cares about how many likes we get on a post or how viral a video is when we post one on Instagram or youtube or wherever and on the internet there are people who judge other based on how they look and when that happens people start looking at their bodies and want to change themselves and therefore look at books on how to eat healthier and look healthier too.
