3.Not only did Jacob's mom notice that he had grown several inches over the summer, but she also noticed that he become a bit portly and wondered what grandma had been feeding him in Nashville.

Muckracker

The most disturbing thing I read was the injuries recieved while working and the processes they used when producing their food.
