Food Inc.

Hey all,

This is a good movie. I really enjoyed it because it covered the entire food spectrum, and it didn't blame one specific food. However, it did blame the corporations who create these mass amounts of food for the populace. However, it becomes a dilemma. Cheap, unhealthy food pervades our culture now,and healthier choices cost more. For many people, the choice is easy if they have a choice at all.

It presents an excellent point that we vote three times a day. As consumers, we have more power than we realize, but the government needs to help as well. Subsidies on these products pushes down the price of unhealthy food. If they were to do that with organic and healthier food, I think we'd see a dramatic shift in many health problems that are plaguing and will continue to plague this country.

If you get a chance, this movie is definitely worth seeing.
