Seeds of Profit

[UltraBudgie]

Hi I found this documentary from France it won't show with the video button but hopefully this link works
https://topdocumentaryfilms.com/seeds-profit/

Its called "Seeds of Profit" and its about how many vitamins and minerals the vegetables have and how they've changed and the food today is horrible!  Tomotoes more than half!

I know people here probably know most of this because noone likes big food and always complain about the supermarket yep its poison! But it really stood out to me because I usually get the fancy tomoatoes in the store the heirloom and sungold organic and they were really good but not so much this year! In fact in the back yard I have some tomotoes growing little cherry ones and wow they're sooo much tastier than even the fancy store ones! So its not just dont buy the cheap ones that are chemical grown but you cant even get any that are any good any more!

Now I dont really believe in nutrition but its clear that theres something really wrong with how the food is espectially in the usa!  Earlier in the year I drove through Kansas which is in the middle and is mostly farmland and I kept off the main roads and drove mostly the county roads through the farmland and oh my gaod the land was dead dead dead! No life at all horrible and I think you cant grow life giving food in stuff like that! So they make zombie vegetables with chemicals and whatnot and it looks like food but no life in it!

N respect for the american famer anymore they let this happen!  Sell outs maybe!

And I've heard a lot of the local famers markets in the usa are now lots of fake stands that look like local but are really just the same stuff you get in the stupidmarket!

Anyway I'm kind of sick of it all being "funny food" -- what's funny about it?  "it kills you -- hahahah!!"

What do you people here do to get healthy food, it's hard to trust anymore.

Most of the people in my area that live here year round have decent sized gardens. Here in Canada I live in a lakeside community quite a distance from any city. The gardens definitely supplement crap we get from the grocery stores.

At my place in Mexico a short walk takes me to a number of little abarrotes (little family grocers) where everything is local and nutritious.

I agree that corporate farming has negatively affected the quality of produce and the fact that stuff is picked very early and transported while ripening has definitely decreased the taste of fresh fruit and vegetables.

For us gardening and bartering for produce locally seems to work.

That is awesome I have a side garden too with the tomatoes and squash and I've grown corn and peppers and potatoes too but yikes the squirrels get to it!  Certainly not a big garden but great to supplement when its in season.  Wish there were some abarrotes here like you describe sounds like honest food there are others who grow things in the neighboorhood ceratinly fruit trees which are great without the wax they put on the stuff in the store!

It really almost seems deliberate like seeing how much poison people will tolerate I see it as a learning experience when I'm optomistic though!  Sooo much poison makes clean food taste like life!

It is also quite funny that you junt between canada and mexico and hop over the usa entirely lol keep up the good work
