Watched it, yuck, yuck and more yuck. Some I already knew but much of it made me avert my eyes or get very angry. Those poor farmers and suppliers tormented by the company that begins with M?
I read this AM that seven states are investigating M's business practices...let's hope there will be more to come. Competing in the marketplace is one thing but their strong-arm and bullying is way, way over the top. I'm surprised this goes on not only here, but internationally. What about anti-trust laws??
IMHO, this is what terrorism is...what they're doing to our food supply (and the global food supply) and to free enterprise. Why is this being allowed---former M employees in high places seems to be one answer...
I'm very sad today.

Yep, healthy food tastes great, IMHO. What's not to like about fresh, sun-ripened, unsprayed with poison foods?
Or have you tasted the difference between eggs from a friend's chicken that runs around the yard and a commercial egg? A world of difference in flavor.
How about a wild just-caught fresh salmon form the cold waters of the Pacific versus a farmed salmon--the first has firm flesh and is bursting with favor. The farmed salmon has pale, flabby flesh and has very little flavor. Hard to believe they're even the same species...
Healthy food, for the most part, is much more flavorful than commercial, highly process stuff...
Of course sometimes our palate get educated to enjoy the highly salted, heavily MSG'd and sugared lab-created foods we're trained to eat through advertising.
I'd rather have the bad food,tastes much better than the "Healthy" foods!
good for you! hope all that pesticide, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup and all the rest of the chemicals that are in your food keep you healthy...mentally and physically.

same here...i knew that our food had chemicals and such and that they are not good for us, but i had no idea what REALLY takes places when it comes to our food source.
the crazy thing that i am thinking about is ...many complain (replublicans/conservatives and others...) about not wanting to have our goverment in our health care business....
isn't the government in our food source and to top it off, they know how bad it is for us, and yet they do not care about what they are doing to our food source. but yet they tell us that they are doing what is best for our nation? BS!!!
now, i am not wanting to get into politics...to me, both parties are full of $hit!
i hope that after viewing this video, that we all take action and do what is right for us and for our loved one....
You're not lying, JJ. But there is more to healthy eating than facing a rice cake and a plate of lettuce at every meal.
I definitely agree there.
