I expected the youngest to have lots of questions and some misunderstandings, which there were. It was so helpful to be able to pause the film for questions as they arose!

One of my favorite books is “Do Hard Things” by the Harris’ twin boys. So little is expected of our kids these days and they are capable of so much.

We give them far less credit than they deserve.

And I agree with the previous commentor (and dig our similar blog names :) ) — I think the next generation will grow up with a very different view of food than many of us did.

Congratulations to you and your kids! It is an important movie, even if it only covers a small fraction of the horror. It has really made my day to read this. :)

I have not seen Food Inc but heard plenty to feel as though I have! Big fan of Fresh though. I think this next generation is going to have a much different outlook on their food now that movies like these have come into such wide distribution!
