Entry #7 - Fresh

 Food, food, and more food...

Have you ever thought about the food you eat or Where it comes from?

Yeah! It's like when you're eating breakfast and start reading the cereal box's information while putting the spoon into your mouth. 

Sometimes I cannot stop myself from thinking about how does the ham, veggies, and sausages are processed. 

Some days ago, I had an assignment in my English class. I watched a film called Fresh, and it honestly gave me a lot to think about it. I believe that the purpose of that film is to help people to know about the products that they bought daily. This film is for everyone. How many times do little kids ask where did the food come from.

Food is a very crucial part of my life, as it is for many of you. One of the things that surprised me the most about this film is the big difference in which animals grow and get feed. One of the things that I liked to hear in this film is that on a farm, farmers are not producing animals, but preferably producing the grass since grass is the best quality food that farmers can give to cows and herbivores.

I think it is prime for Americans to know about what they are consuming. Why? Well, let me tell you this. I know sometimes it is not the best feeling to find out how that food came to your plate, but there have been times where diseases are in circumstances where people were careless and use things that could be harmful to the customers. Some want to increase their production as fast they can so they can sell. Some of these decisions bring consequences to customers who consume these products. People don't know about these things, and they buy those products, which causes those diseases to grow and expand.  

I think that this film matters a lot because it gives more information to its audience, information that is needed. Americans should be more aware of these kinds of issues regarding the food we eat since it is a crucial part of our lives! 

Just as this film helped me see things in a new way, I know a lot of you have seen some like this one. I think this is a matter that we should care about more. I would like to know what do YOU think about this theme? What are your thoughts about the food you are eating right now?

Let me know in your comments what kind of films like this one you have seen?  Did they help you to understand more about the matter of food? What surprised you the most in the film? 

Hope you have a wonderful week! Stay safe....
