Make high fructose corn syrup, semolina, and so many more and can feed to animals
Teaching fish how to eat corn as well
Cheap corn allows us to derive price of meat.
ACFP- concentrated animal feeding operation
Corn is really cheap and makes animals fat quickly.
E coli feed corn to cows and E coli bug evolves and a certain mutation occurs and appears.
Our industrialization created a food that can hurt us.
Make meat more accessible- industrializing the food helps bring cost down and fast production
· Untended consequences:
E coli- spinach, apple juice, runoff from factory farms
Leafy greens
Agencies controlled by companies they should be discouraging
Food poisoning
Processing plants have become bigger and bigger- helps spread far and wide
Only 13 slaughter houses in the United States. More companies and corporate

Never recall meat until 16 days after son died
Kevin’s Law- USDA gave back power to USDA to shut down plants that contain contaminated meat.

When it has a systematic problem to come up with high tech fixes to allow cattle to survive instead of seeing whats wrong.
Meat cleansed with ammonia to get rid of e coli.
Why is the food that isn’t good for use cheaper than the healthy food?

Engineering food- pushing evolution buttons
Sugar, salt
1-3 Americans after 2000 were affected with diabetes
Nobody is thinking of the consequences of the food.
Largest slaughter house in the united states- Tarheel, NC , Smithfield

Wal-Mart- contains organic
Farm changes- who knows a famer?- their way of life has been revolutionized
From seed to supermarket
Monsanto Corporation- like Microsoft- Round up, 9- percent of soybeans contain Monsanto’s patented gene. Moe – seed cleaner
