Because the body can&#8217;t  produce some amino acids on its own, protein is considered an essential  part of the human diet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"module inset-box   \">\n<div class=\"inset-tree\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Protein deficiency remains a problem  for millions of people in poorer countries but, as incomes grow, meat  typically becomes a bigger part of peoples&#8217; diets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">World-wide  meat consumption will rise 1.9% a year over the next decade, according  to projections from the U.S. Agriculture Department, as rising incomes  in places like China, Mexico and Central America allow consumers to  afford more pork, chicken and beef.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">The  United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization has projected that by  2030 the average person will consume about 99 pounds of meat a year,  versus 86 pounds in 2007 and 73 in 1991. The U.S. Agriculture Department  predicts that China and Hong Kong will boost beef imports by 55% by  2024.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">In response, farmers from the U.S. to Ukraine have planted more corn and soybeans, core ingredients in most livestock feed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">U.S.  farmers planted 97 million acres of corn in 2013, the most since the  1930s and up from 75.7 million in 2001. Meanwhile, meat producers in  developing countries like Brazil are ramping up output: the U.N. expects  such countries to account for about 80% of the growth in global meat  production over the next eight years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">The  mounting demand for meat and dairy products has raised environmental  concerns. The U.N. estimates that livestock production is responsible  for about 14% of global greenhouse-gas emissions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Environmentalists  blame animal waste from livestock operations for creating &#8220;dead zones&#8221;  in coastal waters, and argue that meat is a relatively inefficient  source of protein, and that it would make more sense to convert land  that now produces animal feed to high-protein grains for human  consumption.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">In the U.S., most people  already consume more protein than they need, according to the U.S.  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Average U.S. consumption of  meat, measured by weight, ticked up in 2013, after falling in recent  years, according to the Agriculture Department. Sales of fresh meat\u2014the  cuts sold shrink-wrapped in the supermarket\u2014have suffered in part  because of record beef and pork prices. Those prices reflect the drought  and disease that have reduced U.S. livestock supplies. Sales of  mass-market milk also have waned.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">But  sales of many processed meat and dairy products are soaring, as many  Americans shift away from carbohydrates and companies come up with new  and more-convenient products and packaging that tap into the pro-protein  trend.<\/p>\n<div class=\"module inset-box   \">\n<div class=\"inset-tree\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">U.S. sales of packaged foods with  protein-related claims on their labels rose to $7.5 billion in the year  ended Feb. 15, a gain of more than 50% from the like period four years  ago, according to research firm Nielsen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Companies seeking to cash in on that demand include                                                                          <a class=\"t-company\" href=\"http:\/\/quotes.wsj.com\/KRFT\">Kraft Foods<\/a> <span class=\"article-chiclet up\"> <span class=\"ticker\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/quotes.wsj.com\/KRFT\">KRFT <span>+0.20%<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <\/span> Group Inc., which is launching a new Oscar Mayer product called  P3 Portable Protein Pack, which includes Kraft cheese, Oscar Mayer meat  and Planters nuts.                                                                          <a class=\"t-company\" href=\"http:\/\/quotes.wsj.com\/HRL\">Hormel Foods<\/a> Corp.              <span class=\"article-chiclet up\"> <span class=\"ticker\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/quotes.wsj.com\/HRL\">HRL <span>+0.44%<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <\/span> has developed meat-and-cheese wraps under a brand called Rev that touts its protein content.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px;\">The trend has been especially pronounced <a class=\"icon none\" href=\"http:\/\/blogs.wsj.com\/corporate-intelligence\/2014\/05\/27\/general-mills-to-tap-into-protein-trend-with-cheerios-protein\/\" target=\"_new\">in breakfast foods<\/a>, an area of particular strength for Hillshire.                                                                          <a class=\"t-company\" href=\"http:\/\/quotes.wsj.com\/POST\">Post Holdings<\/a> Inc.,              <span class=\"article-chiclet up\"> <span class=\"ticker\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/quotes.wsj.com\/POST\">POST <span>+0.45%<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <\/span> maker of breakfast cereals such as Fruity Pebbles and Shredded  Wheat, agreed in April to pay $2.45 billion to buy Michael Foods Inc., a  maker of eggs and dairy goods.

mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi;\">Food, Inc.<\/span><\/em> examines the costs of putting value and convenience over nutrition and environmental impact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height:

Kenner explores the subject from all angles, talking to authors, advocates, farmers, and CEOs, like co-producer Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore&#8217;s Dilemma), Gary Hirschberg (Stonyfield Farms), and Barbara Kowalcyk, who&#8217;s been lobbying for more rigorous standards since E. coli claimed the life of her two-year-old son.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"

mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;\">The filmmaker takes his camera into slaughterhouses and factory farms where chickens grow too fast to walk properly, cows eat feed pumped with toxic chemicals, and illegal immigrants risk life and limb to bring these products to market at an affordable cost. If eco-docs tends to preach to the converted, Kenner presents his findings in such an engaging fashion that <em>Food, Inc.<\/em> may well reach the very viewers who could benefit from it the most: harried workers who don&#8217;t have the time or income to read every book and eat non-genetically modified produce every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;\">Though he covers some of the same ground as <a href=\"http:\/\/topdocumentaryfilms.com\/super-size-me\/\"><span style=\"color: blue;\">Super Size Me<\/span><\/a> and King Korn, <em>Food Inc.<\/em> presents a broader picture of the problem, and if Kenner takes an understandably tough stance on particular politicians and corporations, he&#8217;s just as quick to praise those who are trying to be responsible &#8211; even Wal-Mart, which now carries organic products. That development may have more to do with economics than empathy, but the consumer still benefits, and every little bit counts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"font-size:
