I believe in this cause 100%! I had no idea of what the food industry was doing. I lived in the US and just moved back to Costa Rica, and the worst part is that the the habits of the US are transfering here!!! We are a bit more local, but the US monster companies are trying to move the products in here. WHAT CAN I DO to open the public's eyes here. I want to help but don't know WHERE to start! How to do you tell lawmakers to open their eyes? If I could, I would purchase Food,Inc. and put it in EVERYONE'S mailbox and then provide information on how they can help change!! It was life changing for me!

#1: Don't drink sodas at all. Nor "energy drinks," "vitamin" water, and similar crap like that. #4: Meat isn't bad. What they DO to the meat is. Eat only organic, grass-fed beef and free-range, organic fed chicken. Avoid the commercial CAFO grocery store stuff. #8: Be careful of what you ask for. Writing Congress-critters about "food safety" yields ineffective, counter-productive, and Draconian "laws" like S 510.
