Beef With A Side Of Ammonia And E. Coli Please
Being the sister of an Organic Farmer and as a pretty health-conscious, active and fit person, I am ashamed to admit it took me until last night to watch Food, Inc.
Reaction? Two words; holy and shit.
If you haven’t already, before your next meal- run, don’t walk to your nearest video store (bonus points if you do actually run or walk to a locally owned one) rent it, watch it and pass it on.
Ever seen that bumper sticker that read; “If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.” ? Well, here’s an idea for one; If you think Organic is expensive, try ignorance.
I have too much to say about this, I could type for hours. Oh do I have thoughts and questions but I will have to cut it short, get on with my work day and come back to this later. I feel absolutely disgusted, angry and overwhelmed. I’m inspired to change the things I haven’t already in my diet, read, research and investigate all there is out there to learn on this subject and help to spread knowledge about where the food we eat comes from. I knew I’d watch this documentary and never “go back.” That’s probably why I avoided watching it for so many months.
I told you those would be my last chicken nachos D. I want to puke just thinking about them. Guess we’ll have to find beer and carrot sticks next time.
FOOD, INC.
DO YOUR HEALTH AND THE EARTH A FAVOR AND WATCH IT. You really will never look at dinner the same again.
