Before you answer that question, maybe ask yourself this question.

'How do you feel about our prevailing food culture?'

If you come up with something like...

“‘I feel it’s time to get back to real food, where farmers farm in accordance with nature, where fruits and vegetables are allowed to be what they are, where the food we eat is actually capable of nourishing us, where we eat to share, to love, to connect and to
nourish ourselves.’”

Then you feel the way we feel, read on ...
