One of my New Year’s Resolutions for 2015 was to watch at least one documentary every month. I wrote them all down in the back of my planner, and thought it would be cool to share them all with you, and rate each one on a scale from 1-10.

I’m hoping to do the same in 2016, it’s a great way to spend a little time each month educating yourself on different topics and information that’s out there.

January:

Fed Up – 7
Breastmilk – 8.5
Please Subscribe – 6
Sexy Baby – 7
Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret -10 (GO WATCH IT RIGHT NOW)

February:

A Place at the Table – 6.5
Two: The Story of Roman & Nyro – 6

March:

Dear Zachary – 8.5 (amazing film, but prepare for your heart to be destroyed)
Jonestown: A Lost Paradise – 8.5

I am currently taking a Community Nutrition class for my undergraduate major. In this class we learn about the nutrition needs in a community. We have recently been covering food insecurity, as well as the government, state, and local programs/agencies that help with the huge population of people that are food insecure. As part of our course, we are required to participate in the SNAP Challenge. The SNAP challenge is essentially living off of food stamps. We are only required to participate in the challenge for three days. In these three days, we were only allowed to eat off of $4.10/day totaling $12.30 for the entire three days. We were not allowed to eat any food that we already had, or accept food from anyone.
