FoodInc. Many products from many companies → (competition, development) → Many products from several companies. Monsanto 1. Patented soybeans→Farmers who use their own soybeans become defendants 2.Polysaccharides/salt/oils→Although they are unhealthy, people like to eat them and sell well→A lot of unhealthy food is produced→Obesity is younger 3 .Organic food is too expensive, dishes are more expensive than snacks → To be full, have enough calories → Eat high-calorie junk food → So some poor people are fat, not because they have no self-control, but because they can’t afford expensive food Healthy food 4. Because big companies have money, they can A. Hire people to lobby (lobby) the government and influence government policies. B. Hire a team of lawyers to file lawsuits (to suppress individuals or small companies that are unfavorable to them). C. "fund" scientific research institutions to make reports that are beneficial to their food, such as the health and nutrition of the product, and what beneficial ingredients it contains, so as to guide consumers to buy. D. Donate money to politicians, or make political investments in advance, such as helping politicians run for election, and help the development of companies after their positions are higher (at the same time, many politicians have worked in those big companies before).

Multinational corporations direct the country and politics. For example, the top leaders of the country lead consortia and large domestic enterprises to sign contracts abroad. Large multinational corporations → too big to fall (for the national economy, national security, employee unemployment, or bribery → state capital injection to help these companies)

    Don’t eat soybean oil now. I checked on the Internet that the soybean oil on the market in China is basically genetically modified. Only 93 brands of soybean oil in the Northeast are non-GMO, and they are only produced and sold in the Northeast, and I heard that they are genetically modified. It's too squeezed to drive anymore. . . I haven't heard that peanut oil is non-GMO, so let's change to peanut oil. If it is more expensive, it will be more expensive.

    HH said that this movie is like "The Evil Metamorphosis" I wrote. I think this film is a little more beautiful. 5 points is just for this, but it seems that it is still from a selfish point of view. It can't escape the evil company and harm the stupid people.

    Troy Roush - Vice President, American Corn Growers Association: You have to understand that we farmers... we're gonna deliver to the marketplace what the marketplace demands. If you wanna buy $2 milk, you're going to get a factoryfarm in your backyard. It's that simple. People have got to start *demanding* good, wholesome food of us, and we'll deliver; I promise you. We're very ingenious people, we will deliver.
