Talking bout Food

I went to see Food, Inc. today, and I thought about a lot. Even though the movie paints a grim picture (pigs squealing in fear, etc.) as well as positive actions (Joel Salatin being awesome), I thought it was an important thing for people to see, think about the issues, and act upon it as they see fit. Some people will buy organic yogurt from Walmart, and some people will start gardening. You can start shopping at farmers' markets more, or work to organize healthier lunches in schools.
Whatever I might do, I feel that I need to keep talking to people about it. Food is too precious to not talk about, and this movie at least prompts people to break the silence.
Go go go!
