Muslims today have a harder time dealing with the backlash of the competing food industries. It's hard enough trying to find halal food, but finding halal meat is getter harder and harder to get each day. And now knowing the contents in the movie, I find now next to impossible to believe the meat I eat is halal. I mean what's to say that the meat I bought think is halal is actually halal? The sellers might've just told me a 'white lie' in order to sell my merchandise. Or they could've used a recorded clip when slaughtering my meat. Who's to say any of this is even halal?
In our growing economy it is impossible to fight the system or fight against the food industries. It's like going head-to-head with a raging bull while wearing a red shirt. No matter what you do, you'll get severely injured in the end.

You are what you eat?!
"You are what you eat." I don't necessarily agree with this comment. After watching that movie, I'd have to be a very disgusting person in order for that statement to be true. I'd have to be mindless in order for me to not fight, dirty in order to follow through and unhygienic in would mind, body and soul in order to go along with this act against crime.
The movie portrays a very disturbing scenario involving the very thing a vast majority of us consume in order to survive. Food among a scarce few other things are some thing that should never be meddled with. To be face with this twisted reality of food packaging leads me to question: "What on earth were we on to leave our source of meat in the hands of such incompetent buffoons?!"
It never ceases to amaze me how low low humans can fall due to greed and selfishness. Is it really worth the price in order to us to get easy food? I mean this is our food we're talking here people, not just the new top or the next in season shoes! Can you honestly expect me to believe that you all would put the very thing that is sustaining you and keeping you all alive is worth this price. If your answer is anywhere remotely close to "yes" I sincerely hope we never meet in a deep dark alley.
It's not worth it if the price means to trade your soul in to the devil.

Everyone is unique in their own special way. There are things about me that make me different than anyone else. They make me 'me', unlike anyone else, and special in the non-psychologically impaired way. These differences make me different, they they be in the way I look, in the way I walk, the way I talk, what I eat, how I sleep, what I where, etc.
From my own point of view, what makes me 'me' is firstly that I'm not a clone. Now if I were a scientist my immediate answer would be my DNA, but to me it's important that I'm not just a clone. I pride myself in being unique, different from others to not be considered a sheep yet at the same time similar enough so that the people around me don't think I'm crazy and end up sending me to an insane asylum.
Even though I'm unique, it doesn't mean that I am without flaws. My flaws vary and are diverse in their own uniqueness. Through my eyes my flaws would includes the shape of my eyes, the way my skin breaks or even how short I am; through my ears it would be how I can't mind my own business; through my mind how I act/behave/react/believe. From others' point of view, it would be how I walk around, how I talk to them, how I behave or misbehave around them or maybe even how I view them.
What I have that is most interesting is in the way my face looks. My cat-like eyes, combined with my heart-shaped lips with my slightly high cheekbones and dark black eyes give a very feline look. This in itself makes me unique and different from others. This is part of me just as the rest are.

What makes me...me?
How are you different from other people.
What are your flaws.
What do you have most interested.
