Don't Put That In Your Mouth.

I read the Food Inc book last year and just finished the movie recently. Its really hard not to feel motivated to change the system and simultaneously helpless to do so.



Although it occurs to me that one of the easiest ways to change the top food producing companies is to shop at Walmart. If Walmart's customers demand responsible organic food, then Walmart will demand the same of its suppliers. And even the largest GMO grower in the world can't afford to ignore Walmart.

One of the biggest messages to take home here is that you need to pay more for your food.
