Sorry to be so bossy but I really think everyone and I do mean EVERY single person in America needs to see Food, Inc. Most likely you have heard about this film from friends or from Oprah…if not here is a simple run down: The movie delves into the real story behind where our food in America comes from; how food goes from the farms/slaughterhouses/labs to the supermarkets.
I am not a preachy person, although I am a vegetarian and enjoy buying organic and local food whenever possible I don’t go around making others feel bad if they choose to eat 3 meals a day at Burger King. Do I think it is a good idea to eat 3 meals a day at Burger King? Heck no! But hey, it’s your life.
For those of who you have already seen the film, please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section. I am interested to hear other peoples’ opinions on what I believe to be an incredibly important film.

I recently tried popchips after seeing them featured on a TV segment regarding healthier eating habits. They aren’t baked or friend but popped! I am not sure how that works exactly but it is supposed to be a healthier way to make a chip.
Since I don’t have a Wholefoods near me (waaaa!) I purchased some popchips at my local Target. They have no cholesterol or trans fats and are very low calorie. They are sort of a cross between a potato chip and a rice cake. For those who love a good old fashion bag of greasy chips the popchips will probably be too bland for you, but for the organic/health conscience crowd these chips will be a big hit.
Since the popchips aren’t greasy like regular chips they are easy to put into a baggie and eat on the go. And since they are very low in calories, they make a good guilt free snack too.
So far I have only tried the multigrain but I look forward to trying some other varieties and seeing how they stack up.
