continued as I got older however, it did not occur to me how controversial farming is until I watched the documentary Food Inc. in high school. This documentary connected the industrial farming process, to the groceries I was consuming from the supermarket, in a way I never considered when I was younger. Watching these foods I was so often eating go from farm to table in Food Inc. is what sparked my enthusiasm for nutrition. I started to watch more documentaries and further look into the farming
Rhetorical Analysis – Food Inc. ‘Food Inc’, is an informative, albeit slightly biased, documentary that attempts to expose the commercialisation and monopolisation of the greater food industry.
