Food Factory

This series could be better but audio commentary is immature, full of corny dad jokes. Im watching it from Nat Geo Australian channel and i don't understand most of the weight comparisons to a school bus? whats a school bus? I only know metric and sorry a regional translation could of been done rather better. I promise you 10mins in and those bad jokes makes me cringe and turn off.

Horrible narration filled with stupid puns and bad jokes.

Also, why are all the products from small, vegan companies?

I actually like all the puns, and fun comments by the narrators. It would be a dry ordinary program without it. The program shows how many foods are made. it is amazing how much is done by high tech machines, while other companies still take a hands-on approach to many of the processing steps. i would like to see a program about how they clean all those food machines, like the chocolate enrobers.

An interesting behind the scenes exploration of how food is sourced, manufactured, and packaged, is ruined by asinine narration that insults the intelligence of the viewer. Instead of imparting pertinent information about the process we are seeing, the producers seem to feel the need to entertain us with a script that adds nothing to our enlightenment but instead makes one cringe due to its inane character. Why do these shows try so hard to be funny when there feeble attempts at humor are totally unsuccessful? If the narration was edited down to include only the descriptive and informational comments, it would be a great improvement and make the show much more watchable.

I just ran into this series recently, and was thoroughly enjoying it, except for the commentators. Basically, it's "How It's Made" (which doesn't really show you how something is made) for food, only I think it shows more about the production processing than HIM does. BUT, then I started noticing the errors. The one I just heard. The narrators starts the show talking about nuts, how there are nut trees all over the world, how nuts are good for you, and then the show start on -- peanuts -- and NEVER, EVER is there stated that THE PEANUT IS _NOT_ A NUT. For the ignorant, then, they now think that peanuts ARE nuts. Sheez.
