“Food, Inc.” Next in Thursday Night Dinner and a Movie Series at the Greens N Grains Deli, Dec 3
Filmmaker Robert Kenner spent six years planning and directing “Food, Inc,” a documentary that premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in 2008 to sold-out crowds. This inspiring film about America’s industrial food complex and the ultimate power of consumers blew the lid off the food industry and exposed many to the reality of mass-production food for the first time.
“When we set out to make Food, Inc. I was hoping to create a film that would raise questions, open eyes and prompt people around the country to think about how our food system operates,” says director Robert Kenner in a recent Huffington Post blog.
Kenner has done much more than that, he has inspired Americans to vote for better food every time they check out at the grocery store. Kenner appeared this month on The Martha Stewart Show. Martha is giving every member of the audience copies of the just-released Food, Inc. DVD and the best-selling companion book, Food, Inc.: A Participant Media Guide: How Industrial Food is Making Us Sicker, Fatter, and Poorer – And What You Can Do About It.
Food, Inc. has uncovered the shocking reality of our industrialized food system, and people are talking on television and online. This month, thousands of people joined Web chats with Stonyfield Farm CE-Yo Gary Hirshberg and D Acres farmer Josh Trout on November 5, and with Food and Water Watch, a leading national advocacy organization, on November 19. After watching the Food, Inc. DVD at house parties across the country, participants joined in online to discuss the issues of the film.
“Food Inc.” will be shown in the loft above the Deli at Greens N Grains grocery in downtown Egg Harbor and screenings are free – however, the seating is limited to 30 persons. You may make a seating reservation by calling 920.868.9999 or by email at info@greens-n-grains.com.

The dinner special is available to anyone without reservations, but our film seating is limited.”
