Business Letter to Frito-Lay

Shreya Vundela Ms. Asuncion English 9 October 2015 Business Letter to Frito-Lay 42176 Gentle Falls Dr. Ashburn, VA 20148 October 19, 2015 7701 Legacy Dr. Plano, TX 75024 Dear Mr. Greco, I greatly enjoy all of the different varieties of chips that Frito-Lay makes. I have been eating the chips for as long as I can remember, and it ’ s almost as if the chips have been a great part of my childhood. I can probably think of so many good (and not so good) memories that I associate with each chip brand. I also love all of the different flavors of the chips. In Lays, I like the BBQ chips flavor. In Doritos I absolutely love the spicy sweet chili flavor.

People dancing in the rain. Finally we have summer. The sun shining. No school. Kids outside, playing all day. Road trips across the country. Planes flying high, making memories for fam...

Nicolas Amselle Ms. Asuncion English 9H Block 3 3 December 2015 Too Much or Not Enough? The Truth About Salt. If you ask anyone how much salt is too much, anyone will tell you that you are getting too much, but no one seems to have the actual numbers. It’s always “cut back!” and “too much is bad for you!” But just what is too much. According to nationalacadamies.org, the government recommended amount of sodium per day, 2,300 mg per day for most people and of 1,500 a day for African Americans, people over 51, and diabetics, leaves people at an increased risk of heart attack, high blood pressure, and heart disease. The very thing said to be caused by sodium. A study published in the journal medicine said that, while having “too much” salt is bad, having too little is worse in regards to odds of a heart attack. Those considered “at risk” for a heart attack, consuming the amount of salt the average American eats (3,400mg), had a 3.1% chance of heart attack. People who ate more (...
