Exploration 12

"Americans fear only one thing: inconvience" This is a direct quote from the documentary Fresh. It is a sad truth that goes on in America. We don't care how we get it if it's quick, easy, and cheap. It's a scary thought. If I were shown this earlier in life it would have changed a lot of my thinking. It is eye-opening. I will never look at the farming industry the same. I need to know more about the downsides to the cheap and easier way. I would like to interview a pig farmer like the Hords to find out what they do. I am glad I saw this video because it brings to light the harm that we do to ourselves just so it will be easier.

  1. I think most people would have changed their diets if they had seen this earlier in life. It's unfortunate that a lot of people are just now realizing how the meat market is industrialized

  4. Our standard of life demands convince. We rush everywhere and have no time to devote to eating right. The connivence that preservatives give has changed the world. Its only now that were realizing maybe this lifestyle was not for the best
