Supersize Me.

Also Fast Food Nation (sorry, it’s not a movie, it’s a book, but it was very eye-opening for me!)

There’s a cool one from a few years back done by the UK Vegan society , hosted by dub poet Benjamin Zephaniah called TRUTH OR DAIRY you can probably download it!! It’s really cool on so many levels and BZ has a great sense of humour!

@C & Red Doll Shoes – Earthlings is certainly a wake up call – i couldn’t watch it myself but another one is Our Daily Bread -not veg focus but shows how shitey our food is produced.

Earthlings is extremely disturbing. I could only watch about 10 minutes before I started bawling and turned it off.

The Beautiful Truth documentary is also good. I really believe Food Inc is one of the best. I also enjoy Super Size Me.

I don’t know if you’re interested in books, but some good reads are The China Study and Thanking the Monkey.

Hope that helps!

There is a BBC series called supermarket secrets (should be on google vid) which may have some insights for you. It actually covers all things, not just meat.
