I saw Food Inc back when it was in theaters and I was interested in hearing about anyone's thoughts on the film. I had no idea how processed most of the food in the grocery stores is and now I try to stick with fruit and vegetables from the farmer's market and eat less junk. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in knowing where their food comes from or if they are concerned about food safety and sustainability.

How ironic that I watched this today which is the opening day of deer season as the husband was killing us a deer for the freezer.

I thought this movie was very good-I've read, heard and watched other people/movies say the basically same thing but this wasn't as slow paced as others and I've still retained facts to throw out to "non-believers". I also thought this movie wouldn't resonate as much as it did, but I got both angry and sad while watching it. I hope a lot of people watch and take some action. Very enlightening. Can't believe how out of control our food industries are.
