Today in my nutrition class we watched the movie Food Inc. Please, watch this film if you haven't already! My family and I have already been trying to avoid fast food, and are good about making our own meals. I felt that if we cooked our own meals it was way better than stopping at McDonald's and buying a cheap burger and fries. Cooking your own meals is better, but I didn't realize that the majority of the products we buy go through a really nasty,unnatural and sad process. I feel cheated and angry. I am determined to grow my own garden, we can't afford buying organic foods (or maybe we could), but it would be a step forward if we start buying our produce at the Farmer's market. There are many changes we need to make in our home. Obviously, we don't have enough property to raise our own cows, pigs and chickens. But, Phillip and I are hoping that once I graduate we can move to the country and be able to raise our own animals (we dream big). We need to be aware of what we put in our mouths. Our diet is getting worse and worse not only in the U.S., but everywhere in the world. Our government doesn't do much to regulate the food that is put in the store isles for us to buy. We need to do something!
