You’re right, to a point. You can’t get things like flour, cooking oils, pasta, cereal, chips and snacks, coffee, sea food, prepared food, ect from a local farmer. Only good meat, fruit, and vegetables. You could survive on them, just like like the pioneers did, but it wouldn’t be a very tasty diet. Actually it would suck. It would cut down on American’s obesity though which is a plus.
While no firm is perfect, a little bit of homework pays off. I won't buy store brand or agribusiness flour. Bob's Red Mill is great at this time.
One day they may add ze bugz to stretch out their offering.
Word will get around. Then I'll move on.
To a large extent, back in the day people didn't need to research their food because...well...it wasn't messing us up badly. Then junk like soy and polysyllabic chemicals became major ingredients.
Next thing you know it, autism and ADHD are rampant and gluten and nuts became poisons.
The medical industrial complex pushed drugs on kids. Many parents (in many cases who weren't red-pilled but love their kids) took the bait. A few of us free-thinkers changed our diets at great financial cost, and were laughed at or ridiculed by friends and family (we were homeschooling anyway so they though we were freaks already).
It (largely) worked for us red-pilled folks, but the wreckage on the other side of the fence in terms of children on Ritalin is criminal.
