The articles "Eating Local..." and "Reclaiming the Heart..." provide a look at a topic I'd never really given much thought into - that is where food comes from and the process of how it gets to us. My lack of knowledge on this topic is quite evident my one of my last posts, aptly titled "FOOD".
One of the more interesting points of this article was how American's are becoming "disillusioned" with the food they eat, in a way. The trend of buying organic food is on the rise as people grow more and more health conscious.
This is actually somewhat surprising to me, as I thought people were becoming LESS health conscious as time went by. It seemed to me that society was only becoming more fast paced, leading to more of a shift towards processed foods and whatnot - perhaps our country is becoming self aware, and trying to rectify these mistakes. Time will tell.
