FOOD INC. I will begin by stating that it is unethical how food overlords have transformed old-fashioned farming into factory assembly lines of production. I find that the following actions are immoral because large food manufacturers threaten small farmers into producing vegetables/animals a certain way in order to “stay in business”.
