Food, Inc.


2010 ACADEMY AWARD nominated film for best documentary, FOOD INC. informs the viewer of various shocking methods used in the USA by the conglomerates, namely Monsanto, to manipulate the food sources and maximise their profits at the expense of the farmer's livelihoods and the consumer's health. I suggest you watch this outstanding expose and make your informed food choices from this moment in. A film by Robert Kenner, compiled over 6 years, I quote from Robert's press release:
"Our laws today are such that corporations are allowed to patent seeds for crops. As a result, Monsanto, the former chemical company that manufactured Agent Orange and DDT – in a span of 10 years – has landed its patented gene in 90% of the nation’s soybean seeds. Farmers are now forbidden to save and reuse these seeds and must instead buy new seed from Monsanto each season."
"Weep for the children and the world we have made for them. OR, REMOVE the power from the manipulators by refusing to sanction their actions through consumerism." Noel said that.
