Uniformity

In Fast Food Nations "Eric Schlosser" writes about the concept of uniformity. Eric Schlosser defines the word uniformity as "franchises and chain stores strive to offer exactly the same product or service at numerous locations" (5). Uniformity is used in many restaurants and stores to keep the customers coming back and to please them with the same service and food that the customers like and are used too. Also uniformity is something people like in fast food restaurants because they like getting the same good service and the same food they like and being able to get the same thing in another restaurant that's part of the same franchise is something really good because they would be going back to the same restaurant no matter where is at. Uniformity is used all over the world because I remember when I went to my moms country Guatemala, I went to a dominos and a McDonalds and the food tasted the same to me as it did here in New York City.

I felt the ideas of this blog is displayed more apparent than in the first. However there were some run on sentences that you could fix. In addition when writing about a book the author's name does not need to be put in quotes. The name of the book is put in italics. I liked most importantly the way you used a personal experience at the end that correlated with the idea of uniformity.
