Food Inc.

        Many people now a days will consume anything without knowing where it came from or how it is made. I myself can be one of those people. After watching Food Inc. my eyes really opened up to the horrors behind most of the food we eat. In this film the ugly truth behind most of the meats we eat was revealed. It was heart breaking to see these animals being tortured, all for the sake of cheap and affordable food. This film also made it clear that the animals are not the only creatures being harmed in this all for profit industry. Many small family farmers are being harmed and harassed by these huge monopolized corporations. They no longer have a voice in the food industry and many are owned by the big boys. 

However, this film also made it clear that we the consumers have all the voice in the world, to demand and decide what we want to eat. If we start buying organic and locally grown food over mass produced, GMO infested inexpensive foods; we can expand the organic market and help out the little guys. Larger companies will then be forced to shift and change their markets by also providing organic, healthier foods. Massive corporations like Wal-Mart have begun to provide more organic products that both benefit our health, and also benefit local family farms. If the consumer demand has already changed the way of thinking for large companies like Wal-Mart, just imagine how many other large minds we can change. Buy Organic!
