Movie: Food Inc. Documentary

Filmmaker Robert Kenner shows in his award-winning documentary Food, Inc. what's really going on in the US food industry. The highly mechanized underbelly which the FDA and USDA (the US government's regulatory agencies) consent to keep hidden from the American consumer is being exposed.
