Entertaining and 100% factual.

I caught this on netflix on a whim and absolutely loved it, if you like historical recreations of food this is a good one to watch.
John Perez
Not a documentary but I thought pic related was bretty gud.
Xavier Thomas
"The World According to Monsanto" gives great insight into what the reality is about GMO's. They BTFO these corporate sycophants promoting that garbage. A good barometer of why it's true is how hard they ground their teeth about it.
Juan Scott
Terms and phrases that make you instantly disregard a food documentary when advertised.
>corporate
>GMO
>"a good barometer"
Lucas Murphy
Eyyyyy
Jordan Campbell
>t. corporate sycophant
Elijah Stewart
Deli Man - follows a man who grew up in his family's deli and now he's taken over the business
The Search for General Tso - exactly as it sounds; who created the dish that you can find in almost every nook of the country?
Cooked (Netflix Original) - takes you through the history of food especially in regards to friendly mold (e.g. beer, bread, cheese) Trigger Warning: the narrator is one of these dumb "ban soda and trans fat" liberals. He keeps the preaching to a bare minimum, thankfully.
Christopher Nguyen
If you miss a good documentary because you don't like how it was presented to you by some /b/tard on Veeky Forums, it's your loss. Unless you're one of those "I'd rather not know the truth" kinda people... bitches.
Nathaniel Wright
Fed Up - Food Behavior
Food Inc.
Food Matters
Free Food and Medicine series
Nathan Long
>waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah he's not regarding my shill documentary designed to "open your mind" seriously
just like I don't read your shitty credulous blogspot. stay mad cultists ;)
Joseph Campbell
>just like I don't read your shitty credulous blogspot
>cultists
Right. You just listen to Alex Jones, Clear Channel and browse Breitbart.
You know which end has a point. Hold properly and insert carefully in vital areas.
Christian Miller
"for Grace" is worth a watch.
Jack Rivera
>/b/tard
I'm the user that posted the Monsanto documentary and I've been to /b/ once, and never again, so I don't know how on earth you came up with that classification for me.
Parker Russell
"Somm" is pretty good
>Documentary about people about to take the Master Sommelier test (Only like 250 people have ever passed it)
>Follows 4 slightly unlikable people and an autist as they study for the highest Sommelier test (Master Sommelier)
>Documentary goes through JUST HOW FUCKING AUTISTIC THIS SHIT IS HOLY FUCK
>Get to watch as people who have been training 16hrs a day for years fail
Here is a trailer, can't shill this shit enough. It was incredibly interesting

Jiro Nightmares of Assrape
Isaac Brown
Anyone know a good documentary on cheese?
Michael Richardson
Thanks for the rec user, I enjoyed this
Jordan Cruz
great recommendation man, thanks
Carter Mitchell
"That sugar films" about how there's sugar in everything and how it fucks many people up. The director embarks on a high sugar diet from "natural foods" and isn't having a good time..
Brayden Collins
The Documentary Now spoof on Jiro episode was fantastic.
David Scott
How did Eat Drink, Man Woman not occur to you fucks? Like talking to peasants.
Joseph Williams
At least the peasants can read. OP was asking about documentaries, not romantic comedies.
Nicholas Morris
The search for general tso is pretty comfy
Jayden Lopez
>le japanese grandmaster of 100 years training
Austin Mitchell
Second this, really comfy film.
Adding to this:
>chefs table
>mind of a chef (only with David Chang who has charisma)
>midnight diner
>moltissimo on vice with batali is also comfy
>the search for general tso
>peter and the farm (this doc will fuck you up)
Jason Bailey
City of Gold was good. Follows around a legendary LA food critic and he discusses his life, personal philosophy etc. Seems like a really cool guy. It's on Hulu or Netflx.
Jacob Hughes
Historieätarna - a swedish "mockumentary" about life and food culture from the birth of the nation until now.
youtube.com
Do not think there exists subtitles, but as a swedecuck it was comfy.
Luke Wood
He's a huge meme, but his "Great Escape" series was kinda based.
Jason Hall
Was gonna say this, now my life has no purpose.
Samuel Martin
Glad to help. Probably in my top 5 documentaries
Connor Phillips
Not really a documentary but I like Bourdain's No Reservations. I read his book ages ago and he's a pretty chill guy, very rock 'n roll, good taste in food and interesting places he visits.
Noah Martinez
pretty fitting for Veeky Forums judging by all the fast food related threads here...
Parker Ross
Not him but stop shitting up the thread with your autistic writing style you literal manchild.
Matthew Morris
Keeping the wine theme going:
Sour Grapes
A Year in Champagne
A Year in Burgundy
Logan Smith
>fresh oak
>like freshly opened tennis balls
the fucking pretentiousness of this nonsense is off the charts
Robert Morgan
it's not really edited well but it teaches you a lot about the cattle rearing and slaughtering industry
Christopher Young
the super funny part is it's all fake, super tasters don't exist, it's a gigantic marketing meme that took on a life of it's own and became a religion
Caleb Foster
I know, I would bet a million bucks that those sommeliers would fail as bad as those wine '''''scientists'''' if you did the same as link related
realclearscience.com
>food color
>color white wine red
>everybody is fooled
Xavier Young
Pretty funny doc about a foul-mouthed guy who runs a small diner in NYC.
Lucas Ramirez
>that ian dude completely not believing to have it wrong when he practices
>he made it a year later after the documentary anyway
lmao
Bentley Robinson
Didn't really like Somm, it was just so U.S. focused and full of cringe moments to me. If you want to learn more about wine the followup doc featuring some of the Sommeliers in Somm called "SOMM: Into the Bottle" is a good watch.
>chefs table
My #1 food show ever just full GOAT.
>mind of a chef (only with David Chang who has charisma)
Really? I liked David Chang's season but he kind of got repetitive. I also really liked Sean Brock, really informative about the South while still entertaining. I'm really mad his season was split with April Bloomfield, I didn't finish her episodes. Ed Lee was alright, and Magnus is top-tier. Currently watching Gabrielle Hamilton, and don't really like her.
>peter and the farm (this doc will fuck you up)
fuck this looks sad
I really liked The Layover. Also I really enjoyed his first show A Cook's Tour, he was much less arrogant and ready to learn.
>Sour Grapes
Fun to see the Somms and Koch get BTFO
Parker Rogers
It's not purely foodrelated but there are some parts that deal with soft drinks and agriculture: Ideocrazy
Adrian Jackson
> Ideocrazy
I typed that wrong: Idiocracy
Zachary Stewart
documentary, you dummy, not just movie recommendations
Sebastian Green
>brian and dustin didn't taste the same 5 wines as the other guy
>both passed
what?
Justin Cox
Brian tasted with Ian, Dustin tasted with the other bald dude and the black guy
Asher Scott
Fast Food Nation is pretty good, not really a documentary but it is educational I guess.
Trailer

Easton Baker
A Matter of Taste
Ethan Murphy
The Supersizers... is quite fun if you mostly want to watch Giles Coren & Sue Perkins dick around.
Bentley Johnson
This was bretty good.
Aiden Fisher
The birth of sake
Follows the daily operations of a traditional sake brewery. I liked it so much I tracked down some of their bottles and gave it a go.it was the second-best sake I ever tasted, made even better by the imagery of the folks making it.
Check it out on Netflix
Jacob Myers
Just finished watching Jiro, and it was really interesting. Are there any documentaries about master baking?
