  • I've seen it about a month ago...Can't I just say I wasn't hungry for a LONG time afterwords? I only wish the big theaters were showing it so that majority of America would have a chance to see it. It is very much needed for people to watch it and to start making changes. Oh, and after the movie, we started buying 70% locally grown foods (this percentage is showing on our grocery bill):smile:

    The info regarding the conditions in the slaugher houses is nothing new, but what is disturbing is the lack of control farmers have over their own property and what they grow. They have to use the seeds monsanto provides them (genetically modified) and they have no choice or they're sued. very disturbing, as well as most of the fda officials are former employees of monsanto. :noway:
  • Thanks susie..will check out the links. Enjoy your day!
  • Wow...never would have thought the government controls the farms??!! Thanks mnichols..gonna do some research, and definitely look for the movie

    Yeah, I have a friend who is a farmer and has written extensively on this subject! He uses only heirloom seeds. It's shocking when one finds out all this stuff, hey?!
