Must-see video: Our Daily Bread

If you've been on the fence about whether you want to become a vegetarian, this documentary may help you decide. From vegetables to livestock filmmaker Nikolaus Geyrhalter's vivid images of the mechanization of modern food harvesting on an epic scale are fascinating, disturbing, and often just surreal. This 80 minute film hasn't a single line of narration and isn't an indictment of any particular company or industry. It's not anti-anything it's simply a look behind closed doors at where our food really comes from and it's not your quaint roadside farm.
