The industrial food system has taken the freedom of choice away from the consumers. They found there way in thanks to WWII. Food companies needed to make food products that lasted. Now they are making completely cooked meals that we just need to warm up. This is terrible to our health and it is terrible for the farming economy. So what can we possibly do to combat this terrible but tempting enemy? There are several different easy ways of going about this. We can subscribe to programs that allow you to financially support a local farm an in return you get a portion of that farms products. We can change school lunches by preparing these meals with fresh and natural ingredients. We also can buy organic products that indirectly supports local farms. Another option is to take part in farmers markets. This directly supports the local organic farms and economy.
Through this research, I hope to discover healthier and more beneficial food. There are countless ways that all of us can do this and that is what I hope to find through all of this.so far my research isnt falling short, so I am good.
It is painful to see how far society has strayed from a home cooked meal. It has become to easy for the average american to purchase a meal that it detrimental to their health.
