FOOD INC. - Watch this before you eat your next meal
Submitted by dexterszyd on Thu, 11/12/2009 - 09:42
Just watched this over the weekend. It is a frightening look into our food industry with the powers and monopolies behind it. These huge companies are wiping out everyday farmers....
Worth it to rent on Netflix

Great information
I also recommend "The Future of Food" on Hulu.com. This is why I am an overall vegetarian and encourage my students to eat local or organic only. I highly recommend Chipotle for all of you meat lovers out there.
Be sure and pass this on to your brother, LOL.

Ron Paul and Joel Salatin cured my apathy!
Joel Salatin is my other hero besides Ron Paul. Joel is a Libertarian farmer from Virginia who totally understands the harm the large corps are doing to America. I've read all of his "How to Farm" books and have been trying to raise ethically grown pastured poultry and sell eggs from pastured raised happy hens. I love to see the new (old) direction our food industry is going. People feel better about buying eggs from not only cage free hens but hens that run and fly around all day. Going small is the key. You can support your local farmer and your local butcher and save money by purchasing a quarter or half cow, then throw it in the freezer. Food Inc. is a must see movie for everyone.
Ok, proud gramma bragging here:
My oldest grandchild is signed up for an apprenticeship with Joel Salatin in the spring. Ok, I am done.
Have your grandson find out
if Joel Salatin is a Ron Paul supporter. I'd bet a chicken that he is, no doubt. Love that guy!
I am pretty sure he is
I think I recall him writing in the Acres USA magazine in support of Ron Paul during the campaign.

Another viewpoint.
The Green Revolution had its downsides -- environmental damage, to name one. In India, for example, water tables are drying up and the soil has been degraded by pesticide and fertilizers. The movement also contributed to the rise of big commercial farms at the expense of small holders, fueling resentment from its early days at what critics see as the "corporatization" of food.
But millions of people were saved from starvation, and the movement's architect, Norman Borlaug, received the 1970 Nobel Peace Prize.
Please don't kill the messenger - this is just something I read recently.

strange
Amazon...
had to share this, thought it was a little strange
I hadn't heard of this dvd. Went to amazon put it in my shopping cart.
Didn't get around to actually submitting my order.
Went back this morning to purchase it and they raised the price $2.00.
Just thought it was a little bizarre.
Please note that the price of Food, Inc. has increased from $13.99 to $15.99 since you placed it in your Shopping Cart. Items in your cart will always reflect the most recent price displayed on their product detail pages.

The Oligarthy wipes out competing powers
Just as they did it with steel, schools, banks, they wiped out any threat from the agricultural sector years ago. What the hell do you think Farm Aid was a result of?

A passionate topic gets the main streams attention. Satellite.
Never before in the history of the planet, did we have a 24/7 constant stream of truth splashing down on the earth!
Bigger than big, and I'm glad I'm here to absorb it, and use the power of the truth . . . instantaneously! One by one, we take it to the world.
Big, big difference when the "people" see the prize. Creates unstoppable passion!
Great stuff, dexterszyd, I see you're eye is on the prize, and even put music to it . . . you are totally a warrior working overtime!
Keep it up!
I watched it
what really got me was the one guy sitting at the Command and Control Center watching the video feeds from each of the processing plants across the country. He's the one guy that sits on his fat a$$ half way across the country that speeds up the conveyor belts in the processing plants that the migrant workers are slaving over.
The part about the collusion between the factory farms and Border Patrol was equally disturbing - especially how they raided the workers homes at 3am. Same time they came to collect the chickens...
It really made me think of the Nazi's how we treat the animals. And if you are inhuman enough to think of people as animals...well...
I watched that two weeks ago,
and haven't been the same since. Certainly food for thought there.

Good Book
I just read a book by one of the farmers interviewed in Food Inc. that was very good. It's called EVERYTHING I WANT TO DO IS ILLEGAL: War Stories from the Local Food Front, by Joel Salatin. He was the farmer processing his chickens outside in Food Inc.. This guy is one of us.
You can find this book and learn more about Joel Salatin at this link:

I highly recommend this book.

The Future of Food
is what made me go Organic about 5 years ago.

DVD Release Date: November 3, 2009
Food, Inc. lifts the veil on our nation's food industry, exposing how our nation's food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment. Food, Inc. reveals surprising and often shocking truths about what we eat, how it's produced and who we have become as a nation.

I'm excited to see it! I'm
I'm excited to see it! I'm not sure that it will change my diet much, I eat relatively clean as a bodybuilder anyway, and make a conscious effort to "try" to stay away from HFCS, though it's nearly impossible. But I do look forward to seeing this film.
