Most folks couldn't care less where their food comes from ... as long as it's cheap and tasty and readily available. Yet when you think about it ... is there anything more important than where our food comes from ... the quality of that food ... and the negative consequences associated with bringing that food to our tables?
These are things we need to be aware of and I applaud Netflix for shedding some light on these issues. In many ways this is a series that that follows in the footsteps of the great documentaries "Food Inc" and "Cowspiracy"
Feeding the people of our planet is big business. It has traditionally been the livelihood of millions of individuals around the world, but this is changing. There are billions of Dollars at stake and anytime that kind of money is on the table we need to be watchful as the profit motive can be a very evil force that crushes the individual.
I enjoyed this series and I learned a lot from it (whoda thunk that drug cartels were taking over the avocado crops). I hope Netflix will produce a 3rd season because there's a lot more to talk about. Sustainability, livelihood and food safety are huge issues for us all.
