too late to apologize (Timbaland)
Such a beautiful and sad song (just discovered it tonight):
(how much does it cost to "mess up" a marriage?)

Food, Inc.

10.26.09
"For every tool they lend us...A loss of independence..."- 'Grievance' Pearl Jam (2000)
FOOD, Inc. is a desperately needed film meant to educate the public and assist us in making informed choices as to what foods to put into our bodies.
The filmmakers have courageously pulled the mask off of giant corporations who treat the human consumer in ways very similar to the animals they send off to slaughter.
It’s terrifying to us to think that the health of our population and future of our country’s farmers seem to get no consideration in the quest for ever increasing profits; and that the very fabric of nature, meaning the seeds for growing our crops, are being mutated then copy-written and privately owned from here to eternity?!
We are compelled to ask where is the regulation? Who is protecting us?
Please watch this film and decide for yourself. We are proud to help in disseminating this information and are grateful to those who made this most enlightening film.

"There's no more important documentary than this. The phrase 'you are what you eat' has never been so dangerous as it is today. Never has a documentary exposed how insidious corporate greed is, to the point of poisoning us. This is a film you have to get to your friends and they have to get to their friends as soon as possible. It will alter your choices. It has ours, anyway."
- Ben Harper and Laura Dern
About FOOD, Inc.:"Bracing, compassionate, witty and compelling," (TIME) FOOD, Inc. exposes the highly mechanized substructure that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of the government’s regulatory agencies, the USDA and FDA. Using animation and graphics, Emmy® Award-winning filmmaker Robert Kenner (The American Experience) lifts the veil on the nation's food industry to reveal the shocking truth behind corporate 'factory farms,' which churn out genetically modified produce and meat from overcrowded animals, detrimentally impacting the lives of millions.

"I gave up the thought of 'reviewing' the film and decided to exhort you:
SEE IT. BRING YOUR KIDS IF YOU HAVE THEM. BRING SOMEONE ELSE’S IF YOU DON’T.
The sheer scale of the movie is mind-blowing. It touches on every aspect of modern life. It’s the documentary equivalent of The Matrix."
