This article left me impressed at the level of processing in foods available in the first world. While this probably results in lower prices, it just reads to me like problems from a completely different world. I live in Argentina, and, while I don't consume fish, I've always noticed at the supermarket that they're sold whole: with head and tail included. Buying oranges per kilo is cheaper than buying juice (0.69USD a kilo, which yields generally above 500mL), so frequent juice consumers have motivation to just squeeze it themselves. There's only a single brand of actual "orange juice" sold in most places, while consumption of sodas or flavoured waters is what's common the most. Some things like basil and parsley are sold as whole plants, because it's so cheap to just move/sell that around, that it's the norm. Some fancier supermarkets have basil in the pot, so you can keep the plant alive at home and have REALLY fresh basil.
