Food Inc.
After watching the truly information packed video, Food Inc., I truly saw the other side behind the food consumers buy. It revealed to me what was behind the mask of food processing and truly where it came from. What I found to be shocking were the fact that there are 4 major companies running the food industry like a big monopoly. But the other case that I found shocking was the process of genetic modification in common foods that are produced. I was not aware that 70 % of processed foods came from a genetically modified ingredient and that ingredient could be owned such as the genetically modified soy beans. This video helped me get a better understanding on what exactly I am eating and has impacted me in a way to make smarter and healthier decisions when it comes to food purchasing. I would definitely recommend this to a friend, not just to scare them, but to give them a piece of knowledge in everyday consuming. I would point out the impact that our eating habits are producing on everybody and how it can be changed.
