You are what you eat

I’ve seen other documentaries about this subject prior to reading this book. But this touched other bases that I wasn’t aware of and made me think a little bit more about our food. That being said, I’ve made changes in my life long ago. I substitute ground beef for ground turkey or ground bison. I try not to eat pork unless they are cured or in a sausage form. I began to buy free range chicken eggs. I am lactose so I don’t drink regular milk I drink almond milk I don’t care much for the whole organic food craze other then for medical reasons and taste. What made me think about this book the most was how often people get food sickness and reasons behind it, such as feces and maybe some appendages that are mixed into ground beef? But what really struck me the most was that there is little government over sight on these problems. With this election that just passed, people need to think beyond which party they belong too but really look at who is being bought out by who. Find out who really controls them. I could be our fault for choosing a person who supports the people who control our food.

  1. Since the government has so many restrictions on so many things you would think they would watch what people eat but that is not the case.
