I think eating healthy is good.

We humans like fats, sugars, and salts, and we like quick and fast. Our foods have reflected that since the 1960s perhaps, and it turns out that probably isn’t so good
for us!

That people care and want to find a healthier deal is a good thing.

However, food processors figured out a setup for themselves.

They continue to make the quick and basic salt, sugar, fat stuff for most buyers, and they created the ‘organic’ divisions where they charge outragoius prices for a fancy
label and advertising. Much of the food is almost the same, processed and all. But it ‘feels good’ to be doing something, and affluent people can throw extra money at
their organic food labels and make higher profits for the food processors.

Farmers don’t have much to do with any of this. They grow generally the same food and feed grains and veggies as always.

But, between some rabid foodie people, and the marketing of the food processors, they have created this story that farmers are evil and are trying to kill you all.

It’s really quite shocking to us farmers? Huh? What all are you talking about with your organic mumbo jumbo?

So, it seems to me we all were lazy and wanted cheap fast bad food; after getting that for a few decades we now want cheap fast healthy food, but are lost and don’t
understand what that would be.

Shysters have latched onto the ‘organic’ and ‘sustainable’ and ‘natural’ label buzz words and are trying to cash in.

It makes no sense.

But it’s goid folk are caring a bit about their food. They just need a better education of what it is that goes on in the food world.
