In this blog, I will be giving my personal review on the movie Food Inc which was directed by Robert Kenner. So the question we should be asking in today's world is that is food really food? Is what we are consuming in are bodies actually food or is it an illusion on what we think food is? Because if you were like me before you watched this movie you'll be thinking that I was crazy and didn't know what I was talking about like of course food and REAL food! But did you ever notice when you go into the supermarket to shop that certain fruits/vegetables are always there no matter what season were in? That's because there's more going in the food industry that we don't know of and it's time for us to take advantage and start paying attention.
In the movie Food Inc, they went over a lot of topics in the Food Industry that most people are not aware of that's going on. For instance, they gave us an inside look of what the chicken houses look like and how the chickens are being grown. The chickens are being fed medicine that makes them grow at rapid speeds which makes it difficult for the chicken's to growth properly, walk, and even sometimes are born with birth defects. Not only is chicken becoming a dangerous meat to eat, but so is beef. Barbara Kowalcyk and her mother Patricia are both Food Safety Advocates and speak on the issues on the food industry. Barbara shares the story of her loosing her son due to contracted E Coli from a burger she had bought from the store and the meat had E Coli in it. To loose a love one due to the irresponsible systems we have in the food industry is not only disturbing but also heartbreaking.
In the movie they also shown the side of organic farmer Joel Salatin
