Restaurant owner, John Bishop, was asked one day if the food he served in his restaurant was genetically modified. Having never heard of the concept, Bishop set out in search of knowledge regarding organic versus modified foods. This quest took him to Calgary, where a local canola farmer was sued because a Monsanto patented seed had appeared in the farmer's field without permission. Bishop also met with a scientist at a biotech company to better understand exactly what genetically modified entailed. Finally, Bishop visited food activist, Vandana Shiva, in India, and learned about the merits of organic farming. As a result of his search, Bishop converted his restaurant to organic foods. <47mn 30s>
