Lies.

After watching Food Inc., my whole mindset on what I wanted to feed myself and my family completely changed. I realize that the foods I normally eat are no where near healthy for my present and future body. The movie made me want to change the way I eat completely after seeing first hand how the animals and vegetables I eat are treated. Chickens and cows are injected with hormones to help them grow much larger than they're supposed to at a much faster rate. How is it possible that these hormones are no where near safe for the chicken or cow, but are safe for us to eat? I'm not saying that I'm going to become a complete vegan because I think that's going a little too far from just watching this movie, but i do think that as a society, we need to look at what we're going to eat and see exactly where it's coming from before just blindly eating it.

  1. I know right? It's so crazy how animals are injected with hormones to make them grow quicker and faster and we don't realize that we're consuming those hormones from eating the animals and probably even from drinking milk from cows or eating eggs. The safest thing to do is buy our meat and dairy products from local sustainable farms.
