Want to Watch Something Scary?
This is disturbing, at least in my opinion. Any thoughts?
Hulu - The Future Of Food - Watch the full feature film now.
PS. It's not short.

The bottom line is that genetic manipulation of food and the persecution of farmers that use "regular" seeds is fearful indeed. I'm only half way through the video but it's very detailed about how eboli and other viruses are manipulated and introduced into our food supply to make crops resistant to disease from pests without having to use pesticides. In other words, pesticides are already IN the produce as it develops.
The video makes me want to entirely organic food for sure. Companies like Monsanto are basically forcing farmers to grow produce full of pesticides through legislation and patent law.

Dang! If you have to have a "synopsis" of the film, well, you need help. Watch it. Thanks, Synopsis! Guess Whole Foods in North Arlington will be getting more of my business, along with any roadside food stands and/or farmers' markets.

I saw this movie a few months ago... great info. Made me glad I eat mostly organic unprocessed foods, the future of food is scary and much of what you find in the supermarkets is junk that, when consumed regularly, will certainly not contribute to good health nor does it taste good.
