Food Argument 31/8/2008


I think it is common when it comes to lunch and dinner time we have this question" where to eat? the common reply " where you want to go?" . The food debate goes on and on until a place is decide. Well I said lets go to the Indian Restaurant. One friend did not agree to go and he said " What the indian restaurant, are you crazy? That cook is so unhygienic , he scratches his leg before cooking, uses his unclean hand to cook, after eating you will feel sick,people will start to think your dirty because you eat dirty food, you will feel not confident with yourself, when your morale is low,you will feel sad,your sadness will cause you to be unwanted? Do want that to happen to you"?

What fallacy is this? If you say ad populum appeal to indirect consequences.
Congratulations. This is the use of indirect consequences by the speaker to persuade the listeners to agree with him/her.
