<p><p>Agribusiness proponents claim that <strong>genetically modified (GM) food crops</strong> will lower costs, increase yields, decrease the need for chemicals and help stave off world hunger. Opponents worry about the health risks and the threat to the environment-fearing that in the frenzied quest for higher profits, only minimal research has been done to prove the safety of <strong>GM</strong> crops. Enter: "<a href="http://www.thefutureoffood.com/index.htm">The Future of Food</a>", a troubling exposé into the reality behind the <strong>unlabeled</strong>, <strong>patented</strong>, <strong>GM foods</strong> that have secretly entered our marketplace in the past decade. </p><p>The documentary examines the collusion between industrial interest and political forces that are changing our diet as huge multinational corporations, ie. <a href="http://www.organicconsumers.org/monlink.cfm">Monsanto</a>, <a href="http://www.coopamerica.org/programs/rs/profile.cfm?id=206">ConAgra</a>, etc. seek to control the world's food system. </p></p>
