title of the article:Obama,M-Rahm dish on food deserts
A summary:
The article talks about the visit of the first lady Michelle Obama to chicago last tuesday,and meeting the mayor Emanuel's at city hall to discuss areas that are lacking access to fresh food and grocery stores.After that she headed to a Walgeens on 75th St."I'm thrilled to be home ,I'm glad we're doing this here in chicago.this is a truly wonderful homecoming and we're not just anywhere,we're on south side,Obama said.The mayor, Emanuel appreciate the first lady's effort to educate people on eating healthy,and making healthy choices.
My opinion:
I think that the step the mayor Emanuel is taking by pressing supermarket executives to build new stores ,to provide Chicago's neediest communities with better access to health food,and bring attention and action to the problem of inner-city food deserts.it's good and in doing this may add some star power to Mayor Emanuel's effoerts to eliminate"food deserts"
