I just saw this movie and I must say that I am overwhelmed with my new found knowledge on how our country's food supply is produced. If you care at all about what you put into your body you will want to see this. Once you see it you will want to pass it on. The most important thing you could learn from it is the question of why you had never bothered to inform yourself on the matter before. Why were you unaware of what you were ingesting into your body, your very being?

While i'm well aware of some of the crap we ingest, you also have to take into consideration what it costs to eat an all organic, chemical free diet. The prices they charge for that stuff is criminal!

I saw that and I'm glad I have a garden haha. There's also a movie called the future of food that talks about Monsanto too. I think these documentaries put a heavy spin on it though. Either way, after I watched that I've tried to watch what I eat. Scary thing is that no matter what it says on the box, you still have no idea where it came from. Organic food could be made the same way, just usuing organic pesticides etc. If you think about it too much, you'd never eat anything again haha

^Very true. As long as the FDA allows certain parts per million of ground rodents, bugs ect into the process, nothing will ever be pure, lol.
