"Before compiling your next grocery list, you might want to watch this eye-opening documentary, which sheds light on a shadowy relationship between agriculture, big business and government. By examining the effects of biotechnology on the nation's smallest farmers, director Deborah Koons Garcia reveals the unappetizing truth about genetically modified foods: You could unknowingly be serving them for dinner."

If you subscribe to Netflix, this movie is available for Instant Watching on your computer.

it's actually been out for a few years now, but because it's another truth teller the only real press has been word of mouth...
