In addition, analyze three (3) methods of propaganda the package uses, and how propaganda impacts the consumer as your warrant.
Incorporate research of the food item as your backing to further your argument on whether the food item is a healthy food, or if the propaganda tactics conceal truths. Even if the food item is healthy, consider if the propaganda tactic allow customers to choose their own foods or it intentionally omits information.

Summarize those who are in opposition to you, or the rebuttals consumers and companies may have about the food item/pacaking.
