Maybe you've read Omnivore's Dilemma and Fast Food Nation, maybe you buy local produce at your neighborhood farmer's market or grocery store. But do you really know how everything you're eating ended up on your table? Through the eyes of two intelligent and inquisitive eleven-year-old girls from New York City, WHAT'S ON YOUR PLATE explores the many paths, the conflicting economics, and the disparate decision makers who all play a part in what we eat. Ideal for families to watch together, the film presents a variety of perspectives on how food reaches an urban community and its associated challenges.
