More than just advertising for organic food

When I first started watching, I thought that everyone should eat organic food. By the end of the film, it is true that everyone eats organic food, local food, and season food.
Money can buy completely organic stuff in the US, but not here. I ate a Yimeng mountain grass chicken yesterday, but it was actually a chicken from a smaller farm. I think the movie is good, but they chose a low-income Mexican couple with 2 children. Apparently they don't have health insurance and their income is probably 1k-1.3k per month. So eating fast food is their only choice, and they also like the taste of fast food. I don't like eating vegi very much. But this kind of thing will slowly decrease, and more and more Americans know how to eat better. Otherwise whole foods and safeway will not appear.
In the United States, it includes milk, meat, eggs, brunch boxes, vegetables, fruits, etc. In fact, it is clearly marked in the supermarket, which contains certain hormones and which does not. Is it ok to choose for yourself? It's just a question of price.
In the film, Kevin's mother, the woman who raises chickens, the farmer with glasses who is interviewed, etc., are all the kind of minority who do not succumb to the big company. I think what I get more from the film is the courage of the producers to reveal the truth, the exploitative nature of big capitalist corporations, and the almost extinct, but always there, people who fight the government and the regulations.
