We finally got an opportunity to watch Food Inc. last night.  If you haven’t seen it yet here is the trailer:

Part of our effort to raise collective consciousness is helping people to understand our connectedness to all things.  We, as part of a culture of immediate gratification, have lost sight of how something as basic as our sustenance, makes it’s way to our table.  Food is as important as our breath, and yet the majority of us have fallen into ignorance – a veil deliberately created by those companies who truly control our food supply.  For some this comes as no surprise – that a small handful of multi-national corporations are in control, even when it comes to the regulatory agencies that are supposed to be there for consumer protection.  This movie is a timely reminder that raising consciousness includes understanding the source of our food, the use of engineered ingredients, how workers are treated, how animals are treated and most importantly, understanding that every supermarket purchase is an opportunity for you to use your money in a way that reflects your understanding of the connectedness of all life.
