Second of all, my bfff has been pimping this movie for months now since she saw it and ***hanging my head in shame*** I have yet to see it. Honestly, I know it is going to affect my life in a major way so I'm waiting for the right time to watch it i.e. when I hit the lottery so I can buy grass fed beef (apparently that's a big part of the movie?) at WholePaycheck (aka WholeFoods).inannasstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08045344482406366476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-17065697568868781292010-02-10T06:26:40.634-07:002010-02-10T06:26:40.634-07:00My daughter is vegan so I have been put through th...My daughter is vegan so I have been put through this and other movies, and yeah, it makes you want to curl up in a ball and eat grass or something- which we couldn't, because it has acid rain all over it.

I have started to try to change the way my family eats so that we eat less meat, and what meat we do eat is organic. Those chickens really freaked me out. Maybe someday I'll even be able to stomach paying $5.60 for a gallon of organic milk.kristahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09522758185912289141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-42711150564196281722010-02-08T03:55:40.679-07:002010-02-08T03:55:40.679-07:00I no hasz cheeseburgerz??

But one day I was at Chalet Swiss in Montreal and I broke down, it was just so good. Now I eat it quite a bit,I certainly won't eat those free range chickens, heck they have the most to live for.

I don't know if our "human consumption standards" were covered in this movie, but if you want a double "treat", check out the "standards" for processing and packaging of food for human consumption sometime. I believe they are available online in total, but here's a preview you might enjoy!<br />http://www.sixwise.com/newsletters/05/06/29/how_many_insect_parts_and_rodent_hairs_are_allowed_in_your_food.htm.<br /><br />Just how many fly wings are in my peanut butter?Stan in NHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09473396450228240345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-11418709080173331712010-02-07T08:37:48.346-07:002010-02-07T08:37:48.346-07:00Hey Gregory -- nope, I did not get soap reference,...Hey Gregory -- nope, I did not get soap reference, and I like to think I am a pop culutre guru (aka obsessed freak)... so go ahead and rub it in (ooh, that sounds dirty)...!Brahmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11883394577835241921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-62589534173038348762010-02-07T08:02:44.992-07:002010-02-07T08:02:44.992-07:00you've been nominated for the KREATIV BLOGGER ...you've been nominated for the KREATIV BLOGGER AWARD.<br />:)~<br />HUGZ<br /><br />http://defyingthestereotypes.blogspot.com/2010/02/kreativ-blogger-award-2010.htmlTICKLEBEARhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09607511642101907283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-62032089508591535942010-02-07T07:48:39.813-07:002010-02-07T07:48:39.813-07:00I've heard of this movie before and part of me...I've heard of this movie before and part of me would really like to see it.
