There are two movies I would highly recommend for anyone wanting to know the truth about the foods we put into our bodies and even the clothes we put on our bodies--Food Inc. & Earthlings.
About Food Inc.
About Earthlings
If I'm not mistaken, you can find both movies on youtube. I would HIGHLY suggest you guys look at both movies. They will make you look at the foods you consume everyday very differently. Remember, it's all for love, L.O.V.E. <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->
About Food Inc.
Food, Inc. is a 2008 American documentary film directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Robert Kenner.[2] The film examines corporate farming in the United States, concluding that agribusiness produces food that is unhealthy in a way that is environmentally harmful and abusive of both animals and its employees. The film is narrated by Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser.[3][4] The documentary was criticized by large American corporations engaged in industrial food production.[2]

About Earthlings
EARTHLINGS is an award-winning documentary film about the suffering of animals for food, fashion, pets, entertainment and medical research. Considered the most persuasive documentary ever made, EARTHLINGS is nicknamed “the Vegan maker” for its sensitive footage shot at animal shelters, pet stores, puppy mills, factory farms, slaughterhouses, the leather and fur trades, sporting events, circuses and research labs.
The film is narrated by Academy Award® nominee Joaquin Phoenix and features music by platinum-selling recording artist Moby. Initially ignored by distributors, today EARTHLINGS is considered the definitive animal rights film by organizations around the world. “Of all the films I have ever made, this is the one that gets people talking the most,” said Phoenix. “For every one person who sees EARTHLINGS, they will tell three.”

Thank you for the information:) I myself am a vegetarian, ARA etc.
I'd like to add one more very compelling & informative book and video.
It's entitled: Diet For A New America
The author is John Robbins
I think the video is better, because it gives the viewer a better idea of what the author is trying to convey. There are no graphic scenes, which make is more acceptable & easier to view, especially for those folks that are not aware of the entire situation.
John Robbins has a way of getting his point across without being pushy & he makes it clear that this is not about becoming a vegetarian/vegan, but rather he is informing us as to how we as humans can do better for ourselves & the animals & how to do it fairly easy.
The interesting thing is that John Robbins is the son of Baskin & Robbins:) He could have continued his fathers business & been quite wealthy, but instead he had another path to follow:)
Well I got the Vegetarian Book for Dummies and I think how to get vitamin B is mentioned but I forget what the answer is to that question. I'll try to remember to look it up and post it. As you can see, I need help with how to be a healthy vegetarian. <!-- s --><!-- s --> I've been off and on vegetarian for about 3 or 4 years. I haven't had red meat or pork throughout those three/four years except if they were snuck in (like bacon bits, etc.). However, I always had problems eating healthy while being a vegetarian. I just replaced meat with cheese. Not the best way to diet. I also have this extreme sweet tooth so yeah my diet is in need of a lot of work. These movies (especially Earthlings) really are helping me look in the mirror and make that change with my diet.

"On March 11 a new documentary was aired on French television (ARTE – French-German cultural tv channel) by French journalist and film maker Marie-Monique Robin, The World According to Monsanto – A documentary that you won’t see on American television. The gigantic biotech corporation Monsanto is threatening to destroy the agricultural biodiversity which has served mankind for thousands of years."
