Tatura screening explores the disconnect in our food

The disconnect between the generous array of food in supermarkets and how it is produced was explored in a movie screened in Tatura on Wednesday night.

The movie - Food Inc.

“Food Inc”, filmed in 2008, showed the audience of 13 how the deception about our food arrives on our tables began with misleading advertising.
The image that our food came from traditional farms where chooks roamed free and cows grazed contentedly in open paddocks was shown to be a lie with the source of most foods being from industrialized farms in which the reverse was the norm.
Food Inc concentrated on the American market, but as one who watched the movie said; “It’s all scalable”.
“All those distressing American scenes are happening here, but to a lesser degree,” he said.
