     THE FUTURE OF FOOD offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have quietly filled grocery store shelves for the past decade.

"There's plenty to reflect on in this important documentary." —Sheri Linden, Box Office Magazine

"Enlightening documentary." —V.A. Musetto, New York Post

"Deborah Koons Garcia's sober, far-reaching polemic against genetically modified foods poses many ticklish ethical and scientific questions." —Stephen Holden, New York Times
