food, inc.

Of all the illuminating, convicting, and disturbing things we heard and saw watching Food, Inc. on our movie night, I think the words of that small farmer from the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia named Joel Salatin will stick with me the most: "A culture that just views a pig as a pile of protoplasmic inanimate structure to be manipulated by whatever creative design a human a can foist on that critter, will probably view individuals within its community and other cultures in the community of nations with the same kind of distain and disrespect and controlling type mentality."
