"The curtain was pulled back": The producers of "Food Inc. 2" on why transparency in food matters
Salon“Food, Inc. 2,” the long-awaited sequel to the 2008 Oscar-nominated documentary "Food, Inc,” follows in the footsteps of its revelatory predecessor. Following the documentary’s theatrical premiere, Pollan and Schlosser sat down with Salon to discuss why it’s necessary to have greater transparency within our food system. To put out information that tells you here's what's going on with your food and here's why you can’t stop eating those Doritos, it seems to me would be helpful information to people. "If you do the math, a fast food worker in California would have to work 1,333 years to earn what the head of McDonald's earns in a year." There’s also Kentucky’s Senate Bill 16, which aims to criminalize the use of any recording equipment inside concentrated animal feeding operations and commercial food processing and manufacturing plants without consent from the operation's owner.
