I think it is a noble cause. You are correct in that it means the price of some of the food groups increases dramatically, so many people are left out of regularly consuming it. I believe that 50/60 years ago, people did not expect to eat meat/fish every night due to the price.
I would like to know why you think farm-to-table is inherently unsustainable? Many farmers in the Highlands of Scotland make a good living selling superior beef to restaurants and butchers in the UK. They do this without regular factory farming methods. Is it less efficient compared to clearing thousands of acres in order to grow a single product which is fed government subsidised corn? Pound for pound, absolutely. Which is why some people decide to eat meat less regularly, but eat the best when they do.
- splawn 11y agoI see it as unsustainable because it doesn't scale and the results don't produce any actual benefit. I see it in the same light as a golf course... a huge waste of resources so that someone has something silly to throw away their money on. Not saying that it shouldn't exist, per se... but it is at odds with the greenwashed way it is marketed.
