Documentary / Rental of 2009

It’s 5:30 in the morning and I have been up since 4am.  I watched FOOD,INC. last night and I think I can’t sleep because of the documentary.  David Edelstein from NPR couldn’t say it any better, “In a year of stunning activist docs, Robert Kenner’s film has the kick of The Matrix — a movie where humans find out they’re living in a simulacrum, a virtual world of fake food (and farms) they mistake for reality. If we are what we eat, we’re in deep trouble.” I was a vegetarian for 5 years and probably will never be one again, but today I will start changing my habits by:

• Buying Organic or Sustainable Food
• Go without Meat once a week
• Reading Labels, know where your food comes from
• Drink more water, fewer sugary beverages
• Support companies that treat workers, animals, and the environment with respect

This is not a vegetarian vs. meat post,related to politics, or some hipster organic post, so please don’t get all crazy…..I’m simply recommending to watch a great documentary and maybe be inspired to be more health conscious, live an active lifestyle, and respect for the human planet.
