  8. "A recent sales study indicated that consumption of seafood dishes in Bay City restaurants has increased by 30 percent over the past five years. Yet there are no currently operating city restaurants that specialize in seafood. Moreover, the majority of families in Bay City are two-income families, and a nationwide study has shown that such families eat significantly fewer home-cooked meals than they did a decade ago but at the same time express more concern about eating healthily. Therefore, a new Bay City restaurant specializing in seafood will be quite popular and profitable." The author concludes that Bay City restaurant should specialize in seafood which in turn would be quite popular and profitable. He supports his conclusion by giving facts such as the consumption of seafood dishes has increased by 30% over the past five years. He also mentions that there are no restaurants in that area which specialize in seafood. The majority of families in the area are two income families which by a survey conducted have shown to eat less home food and express more concern to eat a healthy diet.The argument at the first glace appears specious and fails to convince that specializing in seafood would be quiet popular and profitable to the Bay City restaurant. First of all the author mentions that the consumption of seafood dishes have increased by 30 percent over the past five years. It is quiet obvious that 30 percent increase is not of much significant and substantial value for the Bay City restaurant to specialize in sea food. Had it been much more then it would be a better option to specialize in seafood dishes. The author fails to mention the demand for the seafood dishes among the people there. Secondly the author states that there are currently no city restaurants which specialize in seafood. By this the author assumes that it’s the Bay City restaurant which provides the sea food. It may be the case that seafood may not be that popular among the people in the city so none of the restaurants which specialize in sea food. He fails to mention the Geographical location of the city as to know how easy it would be for the city to import seafood from nearby places if the particular city mentioned here is not close to the sea.To make the argument stronger he should have given reasons for no restaurants specializing in seafood. Furthermore he also mentions that most of the people are two income families which according to a survey prefer to eat out and also prefer more healthy food. The author here fails to mention the health benefits of eating seafood. He has provided no evidence to show how healthy sea food is. Had he given these examples it would have made the argument stronger and more convincing. He also mentions that people living there prefer to eat out. Eating out does not imply they may eat only seafood. He fails to mention the preferences of people as to what they would prefer to eat if they go out for lunch or dinner. Therefore in conclusion I would like the say that the argument is full of loop holes. Had the author taken in consideration the above mentioned facts it would have rendered the argument irrefutable.
