What dangers lurk in our food supply? Is there a risk to fruits and vegetables doused in pesticides? Why does every meal have to include a chemical stew? Is it true that some of these chemicals can cause cancer? Why don't we adopt a "zero tolerance policy" for the food we eat? What are "organic" foods? Are they healthier? Did you know our food supply harbors thousands of chemicals that have never been tested for long term safety? If your students find this idea upsetting, they definitely need to see this program. Learn common misconceptions about chemicals and food. For example, "Some chemicals poison, others help." Or "organic food is grown without using chemicals." This timely and important video gives a foundation to help guide food choices. Yes, it's about nutrition, but it is also about science and how to assess the risks of daily life.
