Maggie Lee Variety Filmmakers Grant Baldwin and Jenny Rustemeyer turn themselves into test subjects in this hugely entertaining study of America's culture of excess. Oct 20, 2014 Full Review Michael J. Casey Boulder Weekly Just Eat It is a must see. Aug 3, 2019 Full Review Di Golding Dear Cast and Crew What saves this film from being another gimmicky Super Size Me or No Impact Man is Grant and Jennifer's modestly charming Canadian-ness. They present some pretty frightening statistics, but they also offer some helpful solutions Rated: 4/5 Dec 11, 2018 Full Review Sydney Brownstone The Stranger (Seattle, WA) [Just Eat it] leaves a viewer hungry for something different. Aug 17, 2017 Full Review Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat Spirituality & Practice A spunky and edifying documentary on the epidemic of food waste in America. Rated: 4/5 Dec 8, 2016 Full Review Harvey S. Karten Compuserve The filmmakers are so frustrated by the amount of food that North Americans waste that they determine to eat only thrown-out grub for six months. Rated: B+ Oct 31, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Wendy K I learned a lot of new information that I never knew before. Its sad how much food we waste. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/08/23 Full Review Audience Member The greatest 1.25 hours with real footage of food waste!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review John R Eat your leftovers, kids. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/14/22 Full Review Audience Member Filmmakers are so fed up w/ food waste, that they dumpster dive an absurd amount of food they absolutely end up wasting. Some really good info in the documentary, and it's well shot. The hypocrisy of the filmmakers is incredibly frustrating though. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member fantastic account of the food waste we could be living on! not half-eaten burgers, but perfectly good sealed/packaged food, also imperfect fruit and vegies that never make it to the store! 25% of what we buy we font even eat... let's fix this problem. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Enlightening film about the food that is wasted from in the farm to grocery stores to the home. It's a lot like Super size Me with out the hype. I enjoyed it. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
