What Does Corn & the McDonald Brothers Have to Do With E. Coli O157:H7?

Food, Inc. has finally been released on DVD.  I rented it from Netflix and watched it twice.  While "The Future of Food" enlightened me about the genetic engineering and patenting of seed by Monsanto, this documentary also opens the curtain to let us see inside the meat producing industry and it's pretty dirty.  They interviewed farmers for an inside look at the strong arm tactics of the Big 4 industrial food producers. We met the mother of 2 year old Kevin for whom Kevin's Law is named who died within 12 days of eating E.Coli O157:H7 contaminated hamburgers.  I promise you that you will never look at industrialized food in the same way once you watch this film.

But they don't just leave you hanging, they tell you what you can do to keep your family healthy and how to change the industry by voting with your grocery dollars. The good news is that "the winds, they are a changing" and now you can find Organics on the shelves of Wal-Mart in response to consumers' demands.  I may even have to stop boycotting them if this continues.  Well, at least to buy my organic foods. :)
