The Food System
It's actually crazy to think about all the wrong doings that go into what we eat everyday. From the food that we know isn't good for us and to the unsanitary conditions where our food is processed, it's amazing. This section we're in has really opened up my eyes to things that I haven't thought about so deeply. There's a lot of changes that need to be made to insure our safety and health, there's good plans out there such as the junk food tax but the thing that is keeping us from improving this food system is money. It's just simply money, and it seems like money is more important than millions of people. We really do need to make moves to better the nations health because of course in the long run it'll pay off. It's just hard to figure out how we start this change, what will it take, and what we need to do. It's a tough question to answer but honestly it will take the masses to change the food systems, some how or some way.

I understand exactly with what you're saying! I never really payed attention to how our food was processed, or how our animals go through harsh procedures. It's surprising to hear about everything that takes place on farms and slaughter houses, and quite scary too. Most of our crops we grow today are genetically modified, and almost all of our animals are being corn fed. Our health is important, and it's time that we gradually start resorting back to the natural way of growing food, and feeding animals.
