Get a garden, become friends with someone with a “meat” farm… or even Veggies, After watching the whole movie, this clip sums the movie up, quite nicely imo.

@jamPrinny11, try to avoid all of these dangerous and corporate related foods as much as you can, I guess. Try creating a simple home garden to grow some fruits & vegetables for starters.

Slanted against Republicans wouldn’t you say? Ttus far in the 09/10 election cycle, Monsanto has given $109,000 to federal candidates – 44% to Democrats, 56% to Republicans. Info via Sourcewatch. I’d say most all of the lifetime politicians are corrupt and out of touch with the real world. Their view of us little no bodies is just that…we are expendable.

Organic hellz yeah.

When I read “The Omnivore’s Dilemma”, I imagined Michael Pollan with hair…
Ipetratz says
About 2 billion people in the world would die in a matter of months if we were to change to strictly organic methods of agriculture. There is nothing wrong with genetically modified foods.
LOLZ4LEON says
@Ipetratz Bullshit, everything is wrong with that crap, i only eat it cos thats all i have here, but it’s a fucking dissapointamant that people like you see things that way, cos it’s people like you that will never change the world. I don’t beleive one bit in global warming but, the food we eat right now is disgraceful, and Mac.Donalds are the ppl that destroy this planet for money, those basteds, if i could i would bring every fucking one of them to the ground for what there doing to animals !

It’s funny because when you watch Food Inc, Farmers have NO CHANCE in growing anything without have 300 FBI investigators from Monsanto, claiming they stole seeds, and bring them too court and out pay there way to freedom against the farmer who has nothing, who to blame? The Government ALL Dems and Republicans lobby with Monsanto, even Clarence Thomas before him being a justice was an attorney for this Monopoly, corruption all over they get away with it Vote them out!!
cbbc251 says
Funny thing when Pollan when on different shows to promote Food Inc, never did and host Oprah, Maher, etc, never said the word Monsanto, or all the other companies such as Tyson, if they did they would have been sued, just the regular eat healthy and got o Chipotle, the media is all bogus and never tells the truth, these companies all hire illegal workers bring them into this country pay them low wages and never get prosecuted? why? because they lobby for politicians Vote them Out!

Maybe they just think its a good idea to keep degenerating the human body by just putting shit in there..
The problem is that executives dont see a connection between healthy people and productivity.
Our systems are fucked! Economic, political and so on..
UlrikBay says
@Ipetratz
Oh, but you dont know that yet.
What about in the long run? In the 80´s people didnt know you could develope allergies from some of the things they put in kids toys. And now we see a generation with all kinds of allergies and such..
Who is to say that we have the exact, correct calculations when it comes to genetically modified foods, and not just some that makes good sense.
There would be less reason for tampering with our food, if we didnt eat so much meat. See “HOME”…

@jamPrinny11 Organic food. :)
crimsonmoon92 says
@Ipetratz Wow, what planet do you come from?
therealpamelamarie says
@Ipetratz So you mean to tell me that genetically modified vegtables that are sterile because of their genetic modification are okay to eat.
STERILE VEGGIES = STERILE HUMANS.
And you mean to tell me that aspartame in our drinks causing brain tumors in lab rats are OKAY for us to consume JUST because we are not consuming enough to cause that in us? NO. Last time I checked BAD = BAD, no gray area.
therealpamelamarie says
I read on another video that this guy had this idea of going into your local supermarket and putting labels on some of the foods (especially those marketed to children) saying such things as GMO or just things like Bad or a skull and crossbones. I think this is a good idea, (I would be desecrate about it of course, you dont wanna be obvious and get kicked out of your supermarket).I know it is extreme, but America needs a wake up call, so if thats what it takes, that type of movement is worth it.
jameslee246 says
what are the songs in this?
Ipetratz says
@therealpamelamarie
I would like to see a study please.
crimsonmoon92 says
@Ipetratz It’s funny that you think that the “studies” conducted by the FDA are true. They basically pay scientists to falsify evidence. I just think it’s really common sense that eating chemicals has a bad effect on your body. Because look at mammals and other animals who live in the wild. They eat natural food, not the crappy processed foods that are in supermarkets today and you don’t see them getting cancer, do you?
shakybones007 says
@jamPrinny11 go to local farmers markets instead of the super market, grow your own food if you can and only buy organic.

I would like to see evidence of that as well too. I don’t care too much for speculation.

Looks like a propagandist load of crap to me. The American food industry successfully feeds 300 million here at home and millions more abroad, but they should go slower…presumably so more people will die of starvation in the process. Also, “this food is making us sick” but we have an ever-increasing life expectancy and the quality of life is better, too. Looking at how hard my grandparents had to work to survive and put food on the table, I would never want to go back to those days.
dmjones1009 says
@Yash9Ar for the nearly 3,000 who voted “yay” for this video, I want to know exactly how you propose to do things differently and still feed 6 billion+ people. Just sayin’.
