This project was completed for College Writing and Rhetoric Assignment for the University of Idaho, taught by Wendy Silva by Shannon Q.


     This remix brings awareness to the biological and social factors that go into understanding overeating. Overeating should not be taken lightly because it puts too much focus on food sometimes causing people to develop an eating disorder i.e. bingeing/bulimia to anorexia.  It poses this question: is it the food industries fault for overeating(companies) with their super-sized portion sizes, the persons' fault with their own self control or chemical factors in the brain?


    This remix falls under Fair Use through Commenting and Critiquing (American society, people with overeating habits, and companies super-sized portions), Illustrations (effects and examples of overconsumption), Launching a Conversation (companies verses self in taking blame for overindulgent tendencies), Intertextuality (British lady speaking in an interview) and Juxtapositions (recombining different elements and comparisons of humor, sadness, i.e. obese verses anorexic girl, binger verses healthy eater, portion distortion). I don't infringe on copyrights because I am recirculating other peoples work to launch a discussion. I am able to make this remix because of my creative commons license that shows that I wont try to make profit off of my remix and am creating something new from the material I used. I also cited the sources I used at the end of the remix.
