I saw a news show advertising a new documentary "King Corn" about the corn epidemic in our food supply. I plan to watch it and see how it is. I know this corn is a big problem in our country.
A few movies that I do recommend that you watch are:
Super Size Me - Morgan Sperlock
Great documentary style movie about McDonald's and our fast food industry. He does a 30 day experiement of eating only McDonald's food under a doctor's supervision. What happens to his body is incredible. He also explores our children's school lunch program which is pretty atrocious! Thank God I don't have kids...
Fast Food Nation
A "spoof" style mockumentary based on a "ficticious" fast food chain (modeled after a McDonald's type) which exposes the feed lot system and the slaughtering system where the majority of that cheap meat comes from. It also exposes the marketing machine behind most of these chains. After we got done watching it my boyfriend looked at me and said "I won't ever eat a hamburger again unless you are cooking it".
Don't eat before you watch it...
Both very eye opening movies.
