...Arsenic in Apple Juice: Action Level December 6, 2013 Table of Contents Description of Proposal Background Problem Analysis Cons Flaws in Studies Used Flaws in Methodology Limit Unattainable Unintended consequences Pros Recommendation Works Cited 3 3 5 7 7 9 10 11 12 14 Description of Proposal The FDA has proposed a reduced limit on the inorganic arsenic present in apple juice in order to protect human health and believes the standard is attainable through the use of good manufacturing processes (US FDA, 2013). Background Arsenic is an element present in the environment from both anthropogenic and natural sources. It can be found in two different forms, organic and inorganic, which together are called total arsenic. Inorganic arsenic is considered to be the more toxic of the two, and consumption has been linked to cancer, skin lesions, developmental effects, cardiovascular disease, neurotoxicity, and diabetes in humans. Organic arsenic can turn into inorganic arsenic in the environment and in the body through digestion by people or animals. Apple juice is just one example of a food exposed to arsenic, which is likely due to the contaminated soil the crop grew in. While some manufacturers may be able to make changes and reduce arsenic levels, it is often hard or even impossible to trace arsenic back to a specific cause. Apple juice poses a greater threat to children since they often consume more of the drink in relation to their...

...Excellent Customer Service at Your Restaurant As a restaurant owner, great customer service is essential to your success. How do you deliver excellent customer service at your restaurant? First, let’s define it: customer service is the assistance and advice you provide to your diners. Customer service is equal parts communication and genuine attention to your diners. (tweet this) When guests visit your restaurant, you want them to feel welcome. When you treat them with care and respect while providing an excellent meal, they’ll come back to your restaurant again and again. Satisfied customers are integral to your business model. According to a Harvard Business School study on Starbucks, customer satisfaction has a massive impact on your revenue. Regarding Starbucks, they found that the satisfied customer visits 4.3 times per month, spends $4.06 and is a customer for 4.4 years. They went on to find that thehighly satisfied customer visits 7.2 times per month, spends $4.42 and is a customer for 8.3 years. That’s great, but what happens when you have a dissatisfied customer? In a Customer Experience Report, researchers found that the #1 reason customers abandon a brand is due to poor quality and rude customer service. These items were cited 18% more often than slow or untimely service. Combined, these two studies describe the importance of excellent customer service. They suggest that great customer service can make or break your restaurant. So, in this blog post, we’re going...

...Agbana Preye Mike, English 101-6, Process Essay, 10/02/2013. HOW TO MAKE ORANGE JUICE Why spend so much money on orange juice for breakfast when you can make it yourself in the convenience of your kitchen at very little cost? The process is very easy and takes a very short time to complete. You also won’t need sophisticated appliances to make orange juice and the materials needed are readily available. The easiest method of making orange juice is to use the “citrus juicer”. You only need the “citrus juicer”, knives, water, fresh oranges and a fruit and vegetable wash which you can get from your nearby store. The citrus juicer looks just like a blender. It consists basically of two parts, a reamer and a collecting cup beneath the reamer To begin, you have to check your citrus juicer for dust and debris and make sure to wipe off impurities with cloth dipped in warm water. A small layer of dust in your juicer could mar the delicious taste of the juice. Cleaning should be done while the juicer is unplugged as it could cause an electric shock to the user. Also check your citrus juicer to make sure all its components are functioning properly. You don’t want to finish a stage in the process of making your juice and find out that the part of your juicer needed for the next stage is not working properly. Apart from that, operating a faulty machine may cause injury to the operator or may even damage the machine. The next stage is to wash and...

The researcher made this project for everyone to know that mansanitas is effective as alternative for sugar. Mansanitas as alternative source for sugar is safe, affordable and environmental friendly. The researcher gathers 400 pieces of mansanitas fruit (to produce an estimated amount of 250 mL extract) sieve, container, pan and lather, and stove. The researcher washed the fruit. Then the fruit’s sap was extracted by squeezing using your hands. The extract was filtered using a sieve to remove the bonny and irregularly furrowed stone inside the fruit. The extract was poured in the heated pan and then stirred thoroughly until it became caramelized. Therefore this study is effective as an alternative source for sugar. The researcher recommended to the future investigators to conduct further experimentation about mansanitas. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION A.
