CLEARLAKE – We all eat – and we pretty much do it three times a day (or more). But how conscious are most of us about the important choices we make with every meal and snack? What do we know about what happens as a direct result of what we put in our mouths?


Second Sunday Cinema's free film for February, “Eating,” (third edition) provides plenty of food for thought as it shows us the results of our dietary choices – specifically, eating meat – on our health, on the health of the planet and on the animals we consume.


Who knew? Who knew that eating a meat-based diet is a major factor in causing heart disease? Or cancer? Who knew that eating meat is a major factor in causing bone loss (osteoporosis)?


Who knew that eating meat is a major cause of the loss of zillions of acres of rain forest in the amazon as the trees are cut down to open space for growing corn and soybeans to feed cattle, pigs and chickens?


And who knew that methane-emitting farm animals are a major cause of global warming? This fascinating, impactful documentary explains it all for you.


As a very special treat, Lori Patotzka, vegetarian chef extraordinaire, will demonstrate that eating a plant-based diet is anything but boring. She'll show the group how to make a chicken-free “chicken salad,” a tasty red pepper/walnut spread, and will share samples of her moist, delicious sweet bread.


A review of “Eating” from the American Library Association states, This is “a compelling and often shocking look at the standard American diet. Asserts that following federal nutrition guidelines can kill you.”


As always, this documentary is presented for free.


The venue is the Clearlake United Methodist Church at 14521 Pearl Ave. near Mullen in downtown Clearlake.


Doors open at 5:30 p.m. for snacks and socializing. Patotzka's demonstration will begin at 6 p.m. and will be followed immediately by the film, which is 88 minutes long.


For more information call 279-2957.
