Makes you not want to eat

Even though Michael Ruhlman had heard it all before, Food Inc. packed a powerful punch for him and his son.

Indeed his response will mirror that of most other people who see this movie. Upon leaving the theater, James said, “That was a really good movie, Dad. (pause) Kind of makes you want to be a vegetarian. (pause) Kind of makes you not want to eat.”

Here’s the trailer for Food, Inc.


Food, Inc.

Food, Inc. opens on June 12; here’s the trailer.

Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment. Food, Inc. reveals surprising โ€” and often shocking truths โ€” about what we eat, how it’s produced, who we have become as a nation and where we are going from here.
