EC Entry: Thoughts on Food, Inc.

   Food, Inc. is a documentary film about the american food industry particularly about how the government and big industrialized companies work. The movie shows how industrialized agriculture is affecting the health of the earth, animals, and ourselves. It includes footage of real companies taking advantage of animals as well as their workers. We are also given an inside look on the lives of factory farmers who seem to hate their jobs, and a family of four who simply can't afford healthy food.
   There were many things in this film that amazed me. We have so many industrialized food that it has all become normal. We don't have seasons in super markets like the film said. I never really thought about it but we have all kinds of fruit and vegetables all year around, normally vegetation only grows certain times a year with certain weather but science has altered that and made it possible for us to have all fruits and veggies available to us all year around.
