Movie Review "Food Inc"

I was shocked to find out the amount of control big companies like Tyson, and Con Agra have over America's food supply. I know they are just filling America's need for food but for me it was how they go about it that I found alarming. The segment with the chickens and how they were being raised was sad, pent up in cages and kept in the dark and being fed feed that allows them to grow at a faster rate that their bodies can not support this rapid growth. These companies seem not to care how they were preparing america's food and it all seemed to boil down to money and the huge profits they stood to make was all these companies cared about. I have a better understanding now of the importance to the animal and the enviroment of "free range" for livestock. I have realized that I can use my voice as a vote when I go grocery shopping and be a little more selective of the foods I buy. I have never been a label reader on the products I buy but this movie has shown me that I need to be more aware of whats in my food, how it is made and where it comes from.

Introduction

Hello, my name is Jolene Marshall. I currently live in San Diego County and have resided here since 2005. I have lived in various parts of the world over the years but have found that San Diego is where I call home and always longed for when I was away. I am married and have been for 18yrs now. Marriage has been great but mine has had ups and downs, and highs and lows. I have learned that it is a process that you must be willing to work through the difficult times and grow and change together not separetly to make your union work. My mother was right when she said "marriage will be one of the hardest experiences of my life  and it will take a lot of work on both of our parts". My greatest joy and fulfillment in my life is being mom to my two son's. My oldest is 16 and my youngest is 12. My son's bring me so much joy and it has been amazing to see their growth and development over the years into young men and I look forward to their futures. I like to take long walks and my favorite place to do this is along the beach I find for me that I develope such an inner peace within myself when I am there. The beach for me is ever changing and always evolving and I just find such beauty in that.
