Synopsis:
In 2015, the WHO listed one of the additives in processed meats as carcinogenic. That same additive was nearly banned in America in the 1970s – until lobbying from the meat industry discredited the scientists. We reveal how, to impede or halt regulations on certain additives, lobbyists have been working in the shadows for decades.
At the heart of this strategy are the scientists who collaborate, who receive generous compensation for studies that promote meat consumption. In conjunction with this, those whose work finds health risks associated with meat are ‘shot down’.
From Brittany to Denmark, through California and Wisconsin, director Sandrine Rigaud conducted a year-long investigation on the tactics of the meat industry.
Reviews:
"This documentary on its own provides a lot of good information related to the declining health of our society and also info about the little-known, secretive mechanisms, industry influencers and disnformation propagators of the meat industry. A must watch for those interested in health. This, along with some other great health documentaries on Prime, illuminate a disturbing picture of declining American health and provide good suggestions for a way forward and fixing it all. Five stars."

Never underestimate the willingness of people to sell themselves, and you, for a dollar.
-
If that is what France does I can’t imagine what the U.S. does
-
Thank you for all your team’s hard work exposing the processed meat industry’s corruption and lobby pressure. Great work
-
It’s refreshing to see real journalism
-
You can tell by how freely the interviewees are to speak who is telling the truth.
-
You can't do a lot as a person except you educate yourself and buy and consume only food that is not processed or you eat it only sometimes. Unfortunately the cheapest food is always the unhealthiest....
-
Good on the journalist & crew for their tenacity at trying to get some sort of accountability out of these corporate lobbyists. 👍
-
Thankyou for exposing these criminals against humanity
-
This is great work. The courage and professionalism is admirable. "Eat food from the farm not food from the firm"
-
This is just a speck of the big nasty picture of what’s going on with the foods industry and all the branches of evil attached to it. Even the regulators parading around pretending to be protecting us. Bring back independent farmers who focus on regenerative farming. Period.
-
Why did you share where the hot dog research scientist lives and even showed her home address knowing she has received threats in the past? Seems very careless
-
I'm not buying anymore processed meat after watching this. I now know why so many mill workers died of colon cancer and stomach cancer. My father was one of them. They all took bagged lunches to work every day. 😔
-
Never tolerate any law/ordinance that infringes in any way, on home grown food. Some examples of restrictive rules are no Gardens in the front yard, no rainwater collection, no chickens, no goats. What other “rules” do we need to defend ourselves against when it comes to home grown healthy food?
-
Thank you so much for publishing this. How courageous to interview the people directly involved in covering up the truth!! I had a hunch that the meat industry just wants income. Also the ultra processed food industry is like the tobacco industry. Think about it. 🤔
-
Let’s not forget that every time we buy a product, we vote for that company.
-
million should be watching this documentary! Your health and safety are in your hands!!
-
When will lobbyists be taken OUT of politics???
-
Top tier journalism! And what a good catch was the Jim Tozzi interview attempt! Gold.
-
All the food one buys in north America is tainted. Too salty, too sweet, tasteless.
-
“WOW” just blown away,,,, food industry is no Different than the drug industry or political industry and so many other industries. Corruption after corruption, corruption covered by corruption, very sad. And to think I just retired from food service after 49 years of being in it. Just amazing,, and this is not a compliment.
