Snack Foods
During the class period, I evaluated the snack Snyder's Pretzels. Nothing during the evaluation really shocked me other than the calories and fats. The calories and fats were both really high but I did expect that they were going to be high but not that high. So the evaluation to me was a good experience.

Copyright
When you write music, you already get it but you also have to request it. You have copyright for 70 to 95 years. Copyright to music means that you are protect from anyone else trying to take your idea. The US current year for public domain is 1978. The difference between public domain and proof of public domain is that public domain is when copyright expires and is in the public. Some rules for copyright is you cannot reproduce the music or lyrics, you Ccannot perform the music/lyrics in public, and you cannot play a recording of the music or lyrics in public.
One famous case on music or lyrics for copyright was Vinalla Ice vs Queen & Bowie. In 1990 Vanilla admitted he had sampled Queen and David Bowie’s “Under Pressure” without consent or license. Ice Ice Baby hit number one on the charts in the United States. Vanilla Ice altered the rhythm of the baseline thinking he would thereby avoid any question of credit, royalties, license or even permission but he was wrong. Vanilla Ice ended up paying Queen & Bowie a large amount of money.
