Entry 8 -->Food Inc.

Food Inc. is a documentary that informs the public on what they are consuming. I would have to say Robert Kenner (producer of food inc.) was successful in informing the public on the issue of mass food production. This mass production of food harms the health of the American people. After watching Food Inc. I found myself rummaging through my kitchen trying to find all the genetically mutated foods I had the habit of eating. Kenner aided me in understanding the process in which our food is created and I came to find that about 70% of our meat is sanitized with ammonia because it carries so many harmful bacteria’s. By the end of the cleaning process this meat looks like cardboard and it’s stored in un-refrigerated boxes. I thank Kenner for his moving documentary because without it I would probably still be walking into a Wal-Mart somewhere and I wouldn't know what was in the food I was buying. Many people are uneducated in this subject and their lack of understanding is what is allowing these companies to stay in business.
