This is the tag line for the Magnolia Pictures’ new documentary, Food Inc., that is supposed to unveil our nation’s food industry. It is a way to try and change the way, We, America Eat!
It discusses food consumption today, its heavy dependence on corn, its ties to national policy, and its inevitable impact on our nation’s health. Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment.
Based on the book Food, Inc. (and similar to The Omnivore’s Dilemma), the premise of this film appears to very similar, discussing the country’s food system, and its focus on making food bigger, cheaper, and faster, is however making America sick.
Featured interviews with Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma) will be viewed in this documentary as well.
Food Inc., will debut in select cities June 12.
Do you think this documentary will be influential and make its needed point?
