Food, Inc.

Just got around to seeing Food, Inc., and for those of you who have not yet seen it, it is a must. The movie reveals some of the well-kept and most horrifying secrets of the American food industry and some of the factors that created it. It will fan the flames of your activism, and help us to realize how much more there is to do out there.

Read more about the movie or watch the trailer on the official website here.

Once again, Michael Pollan (one of the main narrators in the movie, along with Eric Schlosser--author of Fast Food Nation) is a beacon of high intelligence regarding our food system. Some of you may remember Michael Pollan saying "Eat food, not too much, mostly plants," which reminds me of George Ohsawa (more about him later).

Meanwhile, if you have any free time and would like to make a contribution as well as enhance your vocabulary skills, please see Free Rice for a very entertaining and philanthropic pastime...
