My grandmother died of cancer in 1997 , Dole , then called "Standard Fruit" would always spray toxic chemicals near where they lived to kill pesticides , there wasnt a single flea in the area they lived according to my mom. This company did a horrible thing .. and I seek justice for I never got to meet my grandma.

When first asked about having a toxicologist at Dole, DeLorenzo said that 'We rely on the manufacturers who do work with the government. They're specialists in this.' Then later when Dow discovered it caused sterility and wanted Dole to return the DBCP they no longer trusted the 'specialists' but did their own study and determined (in a matter of days!) that it was 'safe to proceed'. Compensating the workers isn't enough, he should be locked up for crimes against humanity.

I can't believe (and am almost ashamed) to never have heard about this until now 2011! Is it because I am living in a "sleepy" town in Northern Ontario - or because I was too wrapped up in my own problems? Or was it perhaps because it was swept under the rug? In any case: Dole is removed from my grocery list for ever more. Shame on ANYBODY who is still exploiting beautiful peoples in our not any more so beautiful world.

I guess I was just naive thinking that Bananas weren't sprayed with pesticide. I always wondered "Man, aside from bruises, banana's are always consistent, never any bugs unlike other store bought produce" If Dole is really harming these people, then shame on them.

It's not that odd. The documentary have a clear angle from the atourneys side. Also the stories told by the farmers are very affectionate. I personally believe that DOLE made the nicaraguans suffer. Why? partly this movie and partly my impression of how big corporations act in third world countries on a more general level. Like cold blooded murders that is, IMO.
