Essay about Food Inc.
Food Inc. is a 2008 American documentary film directed by filmmaker Robert Kenner. Food Inc. is about corporate farming in the United States, where farms produce food that is unhealthy, in a way that is environmentally harmful and abusive of both animals and employees. The main problem is how the animals are raised, how they are slaughtered and how the meat is manufactured. Farms are controlled by big food industries. Cows are fed corn instead of grass , because corn is cheeper and makes cows obese more quickly. Because of the unhealthy environment animals are raised in, they get infected with salmonella and coliform bacteria. Salmonella and coliform bacteria infected food can lead to serious diseases and death .
The chickens are raised in dark rooms , where there isn’t even room to move . They live in the middle of their own droppings and they eat each other. They are fed stuff that make them grow faster and bigger. The chickens can’t carry their own weight and fall down. Employees hit and toture them. I find horrifying how the chikens are treated as plain food not living creatures. Cows and pigs are treated in the same way.
Most of the food in America is controlled and manufactured by few main companies . The major food companies make huge profits of which are based on supplying cheap but contaminated food, the heavy use of petroleum -based chemicals (largely pesticides and fertilizers), and the promotion of unhealthy food consumption habits by the American public.
I think that it’s absolutely wrong how the food indrustries and farms work . Nowadays , it’s all about the money . No compassion. My solution is to fight against the system. If many countries would cooperate, than there would be a chance that we could end this tragedy.
