Food, Inc

I was shocked after I saw this documentary. Do you know it just takes 48 days of a chicken from the birth to enter the supermarket for sell? Do you know the slaughter worker in the farm always get infection on their hands when they cut the dead pig? Do you know there are so many social problems caused because of the food-borne diseases?


Here is a really amazing part of the film.

When the owner of the chicken farm take the photographer inside, everyone was shocked by what they saw. There is not enough space for the chickens, and they cannot move around there. All they have to do is to lie on the ground and grow fatter and fatter. However, it is kind of medicine for faster growing, some of the chicken even nearly died before they were send to the supermarket. And then, they become the ‘delicious’ in our daily life.

Deaths, medicine, disease, these words, look difficult to relate to the healthy, green farm. Virtually, it does, even it appears every day.

Finally, in short, this documentary not only discloses the amazing truth in the farm, but also warns people to eat the natural food not the genetically modified foods. And we must think of ways to deal with this problem not later, but right now.
