Food,Inc. What`s on your plate?

Food inc
Have you ever thought about that the food you are eating where does it come from? the salad you are eating does it really come from a  farm as luscious and green as the picture on the pack is shown?The burger you are eating how many different cow`s meat is it made of? and what if one of those cows was diseased?

Award-winning filmmaker Robert Kenner worked for over six years to bring Food, Inc so that you know whats on your plate,this film will (as claimed) will change your perspective on food.
The film tied for fourth place as best documentary at the 35th Seattle International Film Festival.

This film is 94 minutes long and has been categories in three segments, first segment tells you  how the meat is mass produced to make it cheap but inhuman and contaminated.Cattle are given feed that their bodies are not designed to digest, resulting in new strains of the E. coli virus that sicken tens of thousands of Americans annually.

In Food, Inc. we meet Barbara Kowalcyk, whose 2 year old son, Kevin, died from E.coli poisoning after eating a hamburger

below is  a clip of Kevin from food inc.

Second segment describes the production of wheat corn and other crops on the large scale.

Third segment is about the economic and legal power of the major food companies, who are thriving by supplying cheap but contaminated food, the heavy use of petroleum-based chemicals (largely pesticides and fertilizers) helps them to pocket more money which is a selfish act , they promote  unhealthy food,and they have kept the prices so low that a low income family is forced to feed their  family such poisonous  food which later contributes to obesity and heart diseases.

Such big corporations are jeopardizing millions of people`s lives by feeding us the convenient food that tastes good and it is addictive as well as cheap but  it is a silent killer.

It is  a must watch!

    Gosh, this is great information, but scary at the same time. It’s amazing what companies will do to line their own pockets isn’t it.

    Also, I wanted to wish you a Happy New Year! I hope the upcoming year brings you many blessings, and much joy!
