Supermarketi, veliki trgovački lanci u kojima se svakodnevno kupuje. Od hrane do raznih tehnickih i svakojakih drugih potrepstina. Uglavnom, supermarketi su postali uvrijezena mjesta za kupovanje svega za dom.

Sto veci supermarketi, to bolje, jer tu su i cijene nize od konkurencije. A konkurencija je velika: Konzum u raznim varijantama, od konzuma do mega konzuma, kako li se vec uopce zovu, zatim Lidl, Getro, Ipercoop itd itd.

Mislim da kod nas nema covjeka koji ne kupuje u supermarketu. Mnogi od spomenutih trgovackih lanaca imaju i svoj vlastiti brand za pojedine proizvode, jer radi se o proizvodima koji su jeftiniji, a u vecini slucajeva sasvim su dobri.

No postoji ono nesto sto mi ne znamo, a to je, na koji nacin se hrana koju kupujemo uopce plasira do nasih potrosackih kosarica. Sto mi to jedemo, da li je datum na artiklu jedino mjerilo valjanosti?

Na to i mnoga druga pitanja, predlazem da pogledate ovaj odlican film (u dva dijela) i prosudite sami.

U nastavku prilazem tekst sa sluzbene web stranice, gdje je film i publiciran.
Film je za informaciju produkcija poznatog Channel4 TV kanala, a vise o tome mozete pronaci na adresi: http://www.channel4.com/news/microsites/S/supermarket_secrets/index.html

"Supermarkets are now so powerful, they've emerged as these incredible oligopolies who can dictate the price they pay and they've sort of wiped out any other outlets; there are no real whole time markets where farmers can say 'ok, if you're not going to pay me properly, I'll take my food somewhere else' because somewhere else doesn't actually exist anymore."

How and what we eat has radically changed over the past few decades with the all-consuming rise of the supermarket. But what price are we paying for the homogenised, cheap and convenient food that supermarkets specialise in? In a two-part programme, journalist Jane Moore investigates how supermarkets have affected the food on our plates and reveals the tell-tale signs that the food we buy may not have been grown in the way we think.

Using a combination of undercover filming and scientific analysis, Supermarket Secrets investigates whether the food on supermarket shelves is really as good as it looks, whether prices are as good as they seem and what happens behind the scenes in the production of supermarket food.

Iako je ovdje rijec o supermarketima koji nisu dokumentirani kod nas, pitam se ima li razlike?
