How much do we really know about the food we buy in our local supermarkets and our families? In Food, Inc., director Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our country's food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer, with the consent of our government regulators, the USDA and the FDA. Our country's food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of the health of consumers, the livelihoods of American farmers, the safety of workers and our own environment. We have bigger chicken breasts, the perfect pork chop, insecticide-resistant soybeans, even tomatoes that won't go bad, but we also have new strains of E. coli - the harmful bacteria that causes illness in an estimated 73,000 Americans each year. We are riddled with widespread obesity, especially among children, and an epidemic of diabetes among adults. Featuring interviews with experts like Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma) and vanguard social entrepreneurs like Stonyfield Farm and Gary Hirshberg, POLYFACE Farms' Joel Salatin reveals surprising - and often shocking - truths about what we eat, how it's produced, who we've become as a nation and where we go from here.
