I've just started watching Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution series on ABC and it's quite shocking to see so much prepackaged/processed foods. This trend is happening everywhere, but nowhere as much as the States. I really hope movies like Food Inc., the new ABC series and articles like this will reverse that trend.
- tptacek 17y agoThere is zero chance Food, Inc. is going to change anything. Agree with it or not (and I'm very sympathetic), it is neither cost- nor time- effective to eat in the way that Food Inc. suggests. Normal people do not have access to a supply chain that provides cost-effective and palatable protein from local, "responsible" producers. For a lot of families, the 6 pack of Tyson chicken breasts is the fancy, careful dinner.
- vaksel 17y agoI was actually flipping through the channels lately and I saw a show where they basically reported that sausage has been getting less and less meat over the years. i.e. in the 1940s, sausage was ~70% meat, in the 70s it was ~50% meat and right now it's about 40% meat.
