This documentary from filmmaker Robert Kenner examines how the decisions made between the United States government and the American food industry impact consumer health, worker safety and the environment., This chilling and provocative documentary from filmmaker Robert Kenner examines how the decisions made between the United States government and the American food industry impact consumer health, worker safety and the environment. Despite the alleged protection of the FDA and USDA, E. coli continues to be a health hazard and obesity in America is skyrocketing., Documentary filmmaker Robert Kenner uses reports by Fast Food Nation author Eric Schlosser and The Omnivore’s Dilemma author Michael Pollan as a springboard to exploring where the food we purchase at the grocery store really comes from, and what it means for the health of future generations. By exposing the comfortable relationships between business and government, Kenner gradually shines light on the dark underbelly of the American food industry. The USDA and FDA are supposed to protect the public, so why is it that both government regulatory agencies have been complicit in allowing corporations to put profit ahead of consumer health, the American farmer, worker safety, and even the environment? As chicken breasts get bigger and tomatoes are genetically engineered not to go bad, 73,000 Americans fall ill from powerful new strains of E. coli every year, obesity levels are skyrocketing, and adult diabetes has reached epidemic proportions. Perhaps if the general public knew how corporations use exploited laws and subsidies to create powerful monopolies, the outrage would be enough to make us think more carefully about the food we put into our bodies.
