The book is interesting and eye-opening, but what are we going to do about it? Who cares if McDonalds is the biggest purchaser of beef, pork, and potatoes? Don't we have bigger problems than people getting fat eating too much fast food? It's their business if they want to eat too much.

it reaches far beyond "killing cows" it is how we kill them, why we kill them, and what happens after they are dead. when animals are under that much stress for their entire lives they produce stress hormons, which is stored in the mucelses, which you then consume (hence why you're all on fucking anti-depressents), along with E. coli, because the animals aren't washed before they are slaughtered, God forbid! it might take too long. And the working conditions are brutel, thats why there are mexicans working those jobs because $10 an hour is gold to them, you don't see any middle class american's jumping on that job do you? Also to all you chritians, i don't believe god meant for us to eat everything he put infront of our fat faces, you only need to eat 1500-1800 calories a day, so get off your fat ass, stop making escuses and eat a fuckin salad. also do you know that if americans, simple ate only a portion size of beef a day it would cut down the number of cows will kill by millions a year.

Circle of life you hippy scum. There are people on the other side of the planet who would kill for a meal with 2000 calories in it. Just because you saw a bunch of cows die, doesn't mean it's wrong to eat them. Take your self righteous, vegan ass and feast on tofu, soy milk, and maintain your fragile little frames. Lord knows you aren't strong enough to do the blue collar work in this country. Based on your whacko beliefs in regards to food, you can't handle the white collar jobs either. I certainly wasn't a fan of the movie not because of the cows dying (which is sadly the only memorable part), but the reaction of you left wing fruitcakes is what's most annoying.

PS - where is the champion for broccoli, and other vegtables that are brutally murdered every day in the name of human progress?

local hot dog eating champion in Nassau County, NY.

Who cares about how many cows are killed per hour to feed this nation. The most important fact is; are you eating good quality healthy food? Our bodies were made by God to need vegetables, protein (cow, fish, beans what ever it may be), and carbohydrates. I don't think people should live on fast food, but every now and then it will do.

I'm sure there are burger joints around where this kind of stuff may happen. But they are not open for long. The average American will not repeatedly eat at a restaurant where the service is bad and the food is gross. Think about the last time you ate out and it was bad. Were you stupid enough to go back again? There is no way McD's and BK could have sold as many hamburgers as they have, and been that bad.

As far as illegal’s go back to where you came from. Large corporations don't hire illegal's or they are fined in a big way. I am tired of my hard earned money being taken in taxes so you can come over here and live on it. There are plenty of people in your country who can make money. If you can't make it there on your own, you can't make it here on your own either.

What has happened to a good education? You are required to read this book for school. Why not require nutrition, economics, and political science from professors who really know what they are talking about.

ehhh thats really discussting >.< !!
{i cant belive i have to do my essay on this book >.>; }

i think that killing cows is wrong not only do we kill them but we treat them badly aswell every living thing deserves a good life in my book!

iam doing a class ass ment do you have the film with the man that eats fast food for 40 days

i wonder how much ethan hawke, avril lavigne and expecially bruce willis got paid to put their names to this movie... it was great, no doubt. i'm just curious about how commercially driven movies compare with the rest

are you kidding? you're more concerned about the stupid cows than the humans that are being mistreated/abused in this country working these jobs?!
forget the cows -- save the people!
american higher-ups sacrifice humans by taking advantage of/preying on their lack of education -- immigrants, teenagers, and even toddlers
and americans support this by eating at mcd, bk, etc and taking their tiny tots to these places to start them in on the whole process as early as they can chew the food
we're just as responsible for the killing and maiming of the people working these jobs as the ceos and marketers
educate immigrants so they know they don't have to take these jobs
make it easier to be legal so they too can be "protected" by OSHA, etc

the website has an Espanol option, but c'mon, it's going to take more than that

This film is really depicting a moral fall of the western society - where inhumanity and demoniac features is taking over - and, sadly to say it is not fiction... perhaps it is time for humanity to think about bringing forth the good inside, instead of dwelling in the darkness? We just have to choose moral before immoral, justice before injustice and goodness before ignorance :D Sound impossible? Well, this film gives hope for the future!

Great film! We need to hear the voice of all the people involved in producing our food! and improve many areas of it!
