Food Inc. (2008)

Food Inc. (2008)





A scary look of how a handful of corporations are engineering and mass-processing our food.

Imagine you're a farmer getting sued by giant Monsanto Corp. because you planted your own seeds instead of using their genetically engineered ones. Chickens are now raised in half the time they were 50 years ago.  And twice as big. And re-engineered to have more breast meat.  Cows are being force-fed corn cause it's cheap and makes them fat. And sick.  This is an exploration into how our food is being engineered and mass-processed.

Makes you want to start raising chickens on the fire escape.  And put the kids in bunks, cause you'll need space for the pigs.  Just don't get the genetically engineered ones...

You won't want to eat any more after watching this movie, so get extra popcorn.

Quote:
"The industry doesn't want you to know the truth to what you're eating.
Because if you knew, you might not want to eat it."
