I kept a log of the food and drinks I consumed on Thursday, March 27. For breakfast, I ate 4 slices of white bread. For both lunch and dinner I ate in the dining court. All the food I ate consisted of “slow foods”. For lunch, I ate a grilled cheese sandwich with ham, a Caesar salad, a piece of Oreo cream cake, and I drank chocolate milk. For dinner, I ate potato skins with cheese, a piece of cinnamon bread, a bowl of peaches and papaya, and I drank orange juice.
Looking back at the foods that I consumed, I think that I ate better than I usually do on most days. Though my food choices may not have been the healthiest, I actually ate a variety of foods with the mix of grains, fruits, vegetables, meat, and dairy.
Analyzing the foods I ate, I believe that probably most of the ingredients used to make my meals were genetically modified. The chocolate milk I drank may have been modified by the cows and what they were fed that produced the milk. I don’t believe that I ate organic fruits. It is not the season for peaches and papaya so the fruit I ate was probably canned. The potato skins I ate were fairly large so the potatoes may have been modified to cause them to grow bigger. I would guess that of all the foods I ate, the potatoes had to travel the farthest to get here – maybe from Idaho!

I didn't think about the fact that the cow that the milk came from could have been modified by the cows. Good point. Also, the same with the potatoes. They are really big. But you're right, you did eat well! :)
Yea, potatoes are definietely GM. Other than that i think its fien to have canned fruits when we dont have much options..
Even I think... you ate good. Keep up the good diet!
