The pattern of relationships between people's behavior with the behavior patterns of culture is structured by each individual awareness. Through the influence of the environment and outlook on life, then the mindset of the individual is formed, giving rise to a variety of perceptions or patterns of thinking that are ideological. The impact of these perceptions led to a form of consumer society. Consumerist society is formed due to the emergence of the printed labels on food products and beverages.
From description above, the experts need to conduct a study on the ethics of food within the scope of theoretical and practical. Through the dissemination of information about the importance of an ethical dimension to the food, the community as owners of capital are expected to become more aware about their rights and obligations as consumers. Thus there is no partiality on one side of the economy of one of the parties involved in the net circulation of consumer products.

Transmission of intestinal worms can be through food contaminated by dirty worm larvae. Worms can also spread through the floor or ground is contaminated, primarily by human waste. Worms enter through the skin pores, through the legs that do not use footwear and foot worm larvae or eggs. Then enter the venous blood vessels, leading to the lungs. Intestinal wall biting worms, lay eggs and live in the intestines, and eat food that is digested in the gut. The result should be required nutrients consumed by the worm's body, then the child becomes malnourished, lack of endurance, lack of protein, weight loss and of course susceptible to the disease.
Characteristics of the affected children include belly worms, itching around the anus, the worm in the dirt, anemia or anemia, intestinal obstruction, when it's too long to be thin body.
Tips to prevent the worms are:
* Keep your own personal hygiene, especially the nails and hands. Always wash your hands before eating.
* Always keep the environment clean.
* Keep food hygiene, if it came to buying food, make sure that the food we buy clean in the processing and presentation of food.
* When children play, always use footwear such as shoes or slippers. This is to reduce direct contact with worm eggs.
* Wash feet with soap after playing in dirty places.
* Take medications regularly worm, for example, three or six months in accordance with doctor's prescription.
