Almost everything Americans eat contains corn, as high fructose corn syrup, corn-fed meat and corn-based processed foods are the staples of the modern diet.
In “King Corn,” two friends move to Iowa to learn where their food comes from. Using genetically-modified seeds and powerful herbicides, they grow their own corn. As they then try to follow their corn into the food system, what they learn sparks many questions and concerns.
After the movie, a panel of experts will lead a discussion on our food system, agriculture and organic farming.
