What is it about Americans and food? We love to eat, but we feel【S1】______about it afterward. We say we want only the best, but we strangely enjoy junk food. We’re【S2】______with health and weight loss but face an unprecedented epidemic of obesity(肥胖). Perhaps the【S3】______to this ambivalence(矛盾情结)lies in our history.

It is integral to our concepts of health and even morality whether one refrains from alcohol for religious reasons or evades meat for political【S6】______.
But strong opinions have not brought【S7】______Americans are ambivalent about what they put in their mouths. We have become【S8】______of our foods, especially as we learn more about what they contain.
