Behind the food we love — secrets that giant food companies don't want you to know.
Americans have a long-standing love affair with food - the
modern supermarket has, on average, 47,000 products - but, do
we really know what goes into making the products we so eagerly
consume? David Brancaccio talks with filmmaker Robert Kenner, the
director of Food, Inc. , which takes a hard look at the
secretive and surprising journey food takes on the way from
processing plants to our dinner tables. The two discuss why
contemporary food processing secrets are so closely guarded, their
impact on our health and another surprising fact: how consumers are
actually empowered to make a difference.
