Watch This

Many readers have asked me to review movies over the years such as Forks Over Knives, In Defense of Food, and Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. This time, I’m asking you to watch a series by Andrew Zimmern titled What’s Eating America, a five-part series which examines some of the country’s problems through the lens of food.

Zimmern is a chef who’s traveled the world tasting foods on a series called Bizarre Foods. This time, he’s looking at topics related to foods and food production. Just like the authors and producers of those films, it contains his opinions on his observations, and they may be as controversial as those films.

The series begins tonight on MSNBC at 9 p.m. Eastern Time. Based on what I’ve seen and heard so far, it will give another perspective on our food supply, and I think that’s valuable. It’s information we all need.

What are you prepared to do today?
