Greetings from the Face! This is day three of recording my journey on Face. It has come to my attention that Face has unknowingly been consuming many bad nutrients for years now. According to a source called Food Inc., most of the "food" Face takes in is controlled by the four big food companies. The companies are: Tyson, Cargill, Swift & Co., and National Beef Packing Co.. These companies control more than 80% of the market for beef. Today, there are only 13 slaughterhouses in the United States, when in the 1970s, there were thousands. There is also the alarming fact that the USDA, the United States Department of Agriculture, lacks the authority to shut down food factories that have failed safety tests on multiple occasions.
Along with these horrifying truths about the food industry, Monsanto, a company that focuses on agriculture, owns 90% of the soybeans grown in the United States. Most of the food sold in the United States are produced and marketed by only a few major companies. Also related to the fact that most of the food is made by Nestle, Kellogg, and General Mills. Corn controls America, as more than 90% of food contains the crop.
