DESCRIPTION

Frankensteer is a disturbing documentary that reveals how the ordinary cow has been turned into an antibiotic-dependent, hormone-laced potential carrier of toxic bacteria, all in the name of cheaper food. Frankensteer exposes the harsh and sometimes frightening realities of how our beef gets to our tables. According to this compelling documentary, the beef industry, supported by North American government agencies and pharmaceutical companies, has engaged in an on-going experiment to create the perfect food machine. Their goal is to increase speed of production and reduce the cost of manufacture. But there is a price in producing a cheap industrial product. This benign, grazing herbivore has undergone a transformation in how it's raised, fed and slaughtered. And consumers, by and large, are totally unaware of the dangers lurking in their beloved steaks, ribs and, most especially, hamburgers. Frankensteer reveals some startling facts: Every year, 50 per cent of the total tonnage of antibiotics used in Canada ends up in livestock. And every year cattle raised in massive feedlots are routinely dosed with antibiotics even if they are not sick

OUR COMMENTS
If you want my opinion, there is something very strange in the food we eat in the US and Canada...not sure what it is but everyones getting fat and everyones getting cancer. This film doesnt put our meat system as the culprit but it does explain some very wrong things that are going on with our meat system...things that I wouldnt be surprised if in the future are proven to be very bad to our health and killing people. Actually, some of them have been proven now. The film isnt flashy but its well made and looks at things from a Canadian perspective.
