Food, Inc. a new documentary

I recently saw the documentary Food, Inc. This scary and eye opening film has left many looking at their food very differently and questioning the regulatory effectiveness of the FDA and USDA.

The film points how our nation's food supply is controlled by a handful of large corporations who make decisions based on the bottom line rather than on consumer health, the safety of workers, the environment, or even our farmers.

The film also has interviews with authors Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation) and Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma), plus Stonyfield Farms' owner Gary Hirschberg and Polyface Farms' Joe Salatin.

As they say in the close "you'll never look at dinner the same way." And as you checkout, thanks for voting.
