Food, Inc.
By Jen Shenk
 
 
Please watch this video trailer, click here to read an interview with the movie's producers on Amazon.com's description of this movie and visit the Food, Inc. website. Then go to Forbush Memorial Library and borrow one of the copies of the DVD that we purchased for your viewing amazement.
 
 

 
From Amazon.com:
The enormous buying power of the fast food industry helped to transform the entire food production system of the United States.  So even when you purchase food at the supermarket, you’re likely to be getting products that came from factories, feedlots and suppliers that emerged to serve the fast food chains. That things can change in this country. It changed against the big tobacco companies.  We have to influence the government and readjust these scales back into the interests of the consumer.  We did it before, and we can do it again. A deeper knowledge of where their food comes from and a sense of outrage over how their food is being produced and a sense of hope and possibility of the alternatives springing up around the country.  Food, Inc. is the most important and powerful film about our food system in a generation.
