"Food, Inc." will be in theaters in two weeks. According to the movie website, this Robert Kenner film "expos[es] the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government's regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA."
Including interviews with Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma), Eric Schlosser ("Fast Food Nation"), Gary Herschberg of Stonyfield Farms, and Joel Salatin of Polyface Farm, the film gives viewers a sense not only of what's wrong with America's food systems, but also what is right and what is being improved.
