9. What we can do: vote with our feet and change the world through every bite of our own food. As the
so-called "only eat without negotiation", netizens quickly divided into two teams with clear positions after watching the film. Supporters believe that this The film exposes the false prosperity of the "American supermarket". Behind the tens of thousands of products, there are just a few oligarchic companies who are greedy for profit, and what these companies do to our food is so ugly; opponents say the film is too sensational, Pre-set positions, logical confusion. In the face of this "non-negotiable" matter, it seems that you can't speak without standing in line. Fortunately, the film states the events very clearly, so it is very simple to stand in line.
Q: Our food has changed from agricultural products to industrial products, is this good?
A: This seems to be an irreversible trend. In order to feed more people, countries all over the world are the same. Of course, if the population can be effectively controlled...
Q: Is it a bad thing that the food industry is monopolized by several companies?
A: Not necessarily, as long as there is healthy competition. Big companies face greater costs, so they will be more cautious. For example: after the news of the death of the 2-year-old boy in the film was exposed, 140 tons of beef were recalled. Big companies do not want this to happen again, so they must Strengthen the supervision of production links.
Q: Does the food industry cause food unsanitary?
A: The important thing is supervision. If there is no perfect system to supervise, no matter whether the company or the farmer kills the livestock, there is the same risk of contaminating the food. People who lived in the Celestial Dynasty have a deep understanding. You may be able to tell at a glance whether the beef has feces mixed in, but it is not so easy to find out which eel has taken contraceptives.
Q: The food industry is destroying the American diet, making the more Americans eat less healthy?
A: Agree. The video tells us that when you walk into the supermarket, you will see a dazzling array of products in front of you, but in fact there are few choices, and they are all junk food. No matter how you eat it, you will become ill. It's no accident that one-third of Americans born after 2000 will have early-stage diabetes symptoms. Of course, with the exception of the rich, the rich can eat cauliflower for $3 a pound, whatever they like, and the poor have to fall into "eating junk food --> insufficient nutritional intake --> can't buy good things. Let’s continue to eat junk food from now on, let’s make up a little bit—> the more you eat, the fatter you become—> the fatter you need to eat more junk food” in a vicious circle.
Q: Is the food industry inhumane?
A: It's none of my business? These laborers are very pitiful, but they are illegal immigrants and not the bosses of sweatshops pointing guns at them to work. By the way, I don’t believe that cows that grow up listening to music are really better than cows that don’t listen to anything, but cattle, sheep and poultry should have a relatively hygienic breeding environment, full of diseases. The environment in which bacteria kill several chickens a day is definitely not good, and consumers cannot monitor with their mouths, which requires regulatory authorities to set standards.
Q: Is there a high price behind cheap food?
A: Agree. In this world where bad money drives out good money, everyone understands the principle of getting what you pay for. Even the frying fritters at the gate of a certain community wrote an article saying that he had to go out of business because he used good oil and flour for an extra 50 cents. I also advise those "good money" to find the right consumers and do the right communication, whether it is "applause from one hundred million taste buds on the tip of the tongue" or "gift from God", you, you crusaders?
Q: Is Monsanto a bad guy?
A: After watching this film, I wikiped it and found that Monsando is really a mysterious company. Most of the entries on the wiki have been deleted, and only the solitary titles are left like wreckage. , hinting at the ulterior motives behind it. Guess who deleted these entries?
1, Wiki2
, Pooh
3, Tigger
4, Dui!
I think, whatever the reason is to delete these entries, it will not prevent us from thinking that it is a rogue company.
Q: Collusion between officials and businessmen, cheap corn hurts farmers?
A: Judging from the film, it is like this, and... This model of high-level talent exchange between the government and enterprises seems familiar?
Q: Should Meidi food manufacturers state the ingredients and origin on the label?
A: Of course! Even Heaven has done this!
Finally, as a citizen of the Celestial Dynasty, this film is too suitable for Chinese people to watch. I had already despaired about the issue of food safety, but it turned out that the democratic and free American imperialists were not much better!
Of course, the problems faced by the two countries are different. The U.S. imperial people who are in dire straits are basically full, and they only need to beware of a few oligarchs and lawbreakers from time to time poisoning, but it is difficult to eat nutrition, and it is even more difficult to eat healthy. It’s difficult; here’s the people of the Celestial Dynasty, the urban residents happily put everything in their mouths, the nutrition is enough, and the magic power of not invading a hundred poisons has also been achieved. In the mountains, there are still many people who can eat enough to eat. Not bad.
What needs to be vigilant is that Monsanto has already extended its tentacles into China. In Guangxi, Liaoning and other places, they cooperate with the government to recruit farmers in the form of free seeds. Can you imagine what tragedies will happen next? France is a lesson from the past, let them buy seeds first, then buy pesticides, then buy fertilizers, and then buy... As long as they get a condom, their life is over.
Regarding food safety issues, Chinese people are becoming more and more numb, so that after seeing this film, some netizens said, isn't this a commonplace? That's why such films are more meaningful, even if the views are biased, they are still worth recommending, because we can't lack perspectives that care about connecting our own interests.
There is also an old saying that it is not easy for the world's most populous country to feed so many people, and give African refugees Mengniu, do you think they drink it? But... I remember a country where the population density is greater than that of the Celestial Dynasty, the pressure of life is greater than that of the Celestial Dynasty, the politics is not necessarily clear, and the businessmen are not without treacherousness, but as long as the friends who have been there will say, even the rice there is fragrant. Deke people, it is very safe to eat there, um, this country seems to be quite close to us.
