Food, Inc.: Take Action!
In the mean time, I checked out the Food, Inc. website and found this list of 10 things you can do to change the food system, many of which I’ve discussed before (click here to get details):
- Stop drinking sodas and other sweetened beverages.
- Eat at home instead of eating out.
- Support the passage of laws requiring chain restaurants to post calorie information on the menus and menu boards.
- Tell schools to stop selling sodas, junk food, and sports drinks.
- Meatless Mondays — Go without meat one day a week.
- Buy organic or sustainable food with little or no pesticides.
- Protect family farms; visit your local farmer’s market.
- Make a point to know where your food comes from — READ LABELS.
- Tell Congress that food safety is important to you.
- Demand job protections for farm workers and food processors, ensuring fair wages and protections.
