Meanwhile... here is a blog about the Obamas and their food choices.

I absolutely love the pictures of him golfing and having such a grand old time being prez and eating well.

They are pushing local foods and ethical food practices... and then this bill S.510 just slips underneath the media glow in the dark reality that is legislation.

Say one thing while doing another.

Again.

Appreciate the bump, Loony.

I am actually reading 'Going Postal' right now, so cheers in Ankh Morpork...

I am in Europe right now, and it is interesting to get peoples' take on the food situation here as well. I am from the states... and just this past year I saw that documentary, Food Inc.

Now, I can't hardly stop myself from commenting on the poor food choices of myself and others.

I agree, it tends to annoy people, or their eyes just glaze over.

But I think I do the same for other things, so it is all relative in some way...


peace

Yeah, Pratchett rocks! Anyway...

So, I was doing a weird line of research, something bigger than I could even really handle, but I did a Google search and check this out:




I search for food companies and they give me, among others, a link to chemical companies. How sick is that?

Food and chemicals should not come up in the same search, methinks. It's a frakked up world.

There's some other good movies out there, Home, The World According to Monsanto, Unnatural Selection to name a few.

To be honest, this is beyond my wildest imagination that our gov't is doing this. Especially two years ago, I wouldn't have known or cared one bit.

It is almost unbelievable.

I haven't read it, but 1984 was prophetic.

Soon, I think, Soylent Green will also come true... if we keep letting them control our lives - especially our food.
