whats in the food you eat ?
"There are over 14,000 man-made chemicals added to our American food supply today. Food additives are not natural nutrition ......... Children are suffering the most from food additives because they are exposed to food chemicals from infancy "....etc.
It is amazing the extent of greed man kind has reached. The desire to acquire greater quantities of profit, has collided with the necessity to feed a population that seems to be growing without control. In a world that is no longer interested in quality but in quantity, food growth hormones are the way to go. As long as your turkey for thanksgiving is enormous and your Ham is big enough to feed your whole family, American people sacrifice what should be essential : health. Tomorrow when those cysts start growing in our bodies , would be then the time to ask why? as long as it is not affecting us now, we don't want to hear about. Nor the big corporation nor the government are gonna pay for studies that reveal the causes of consuming food injected with chemicals, there are billions to lose in the process. What they are going see is advertisement about how a 20 pound tomato or potato could end hungriness, it could, yes but at what price?.

Not only do we use chemicals
Not only do we use chemicals to increase growth in foods, certain food corporations such as the fast food industry make food that is addictive, so people will buy more. Fast food is horrible for the human body as well, so it keeps in line with what you've stated in your post.
Genetic Engineering in food
Genetic Engineering in food is not going to solve world hunger. It is so the big business fat cats can make a monopoly off the food supply. THERE IS ENOUGH FOOD TO GIVE EVERYONE IN THE WORLD 3500 CALORIES A DAY, YET 800 MILLION PEOPLE ARE STARVING.

Dear Dominique This a
Dear Dominique
This a fantastic post because everything you mentioned in it was of equal significance. As human beings,we are the most vital resource to mankind. We are walking machines capable of mass destruction amongst other means of action.Whether what we do is positive or negative,we leave a huge scar on the world and society. With that in mind,there is always the urge to commit either atrocities or acts of benevolence. In this way,people who do to many of these things start thinking they are more worthy of materialistic things or rewards then anybody else.Once this idea of taking from the Impecuniary and giving to the ostentatious spreads ,we then have an ongoing feud for money which in the first place is the route of all evil. After all this is done and the rich have gotten what they THINK is their fair share of "green paper". They then feel sorry about what they have done and throw our money back at us, but in the form of Disgusting fatty foods. Therefore the weight is off their shoulders and so they feel they have done enough. It is not us that sacrifices our health,its those rich prudes that surround us with those foods. The importance of every human being is to keep the generation going forever. How can we do that when people are dying at such an expedient rate due to obesity and all these other outlandish, irrational diseases that should not even exist. Most of the ailments that we have come into contact with are from us or the foods we eat so therefore we are the ones that have created this disgusting lifestyle for not just obese teens but for adults to.
