  2. Great video, but what would the people in it say about the government now trying to stop people from growing their own food and trying to stop small farmers? I would love to hear their thoughts

  3. We lived outside the USA. The school lunches in these schools were phenomenal. When we returned, my children refused to eat school lunch. The priority was the children health.

  4. Mine grandma send me magos from El Salvador y eat mangos all the time I haven’t taste a Salvadoran mango in 13 years the mongo we buy in California is trash no flavor at all the green mango took back to miné childhood

  5. I like how the representative says we can't just pull the rug out from whatever they're doing now. Why can't they?, they pulled the rug out from under the small natural farmers.

  6. This doc has an invaluable content, but the background music is too much, should be at a dynamic pace with silence to absorb better the participants thoughts and memories about this revolution

  7. 31:22 This is a poor analysis. They failed to account for increasing longevity, increased need for greater expensive healthcare later in life, and the general increase in healthcare and insurance costs. There are way too many variables at play here which are not being accounted for.

  8. In effect this is the result of the change to the way people live.
    Before the 1800s most people were engaged in the agricultural industry. With the industrial revolution and every change in technology after, more and more people moved off farms and into cities. Peoples lives changed from doing a wide variety of tasks in addition to a trade to performing a single type of labor and relying on others to produce the things they no longer did.
    The food available to the poor and even middle class in cities was never good.
