>Food (especially supermarket) is 1) healthier in San Francisco, it's 2) higher quality and there's more 3) variety. How so, on all three points?

- gumby 5y agoA lot of it is grown locally (other US states also import food from California, but it’s not local). Also in SF these days food prices are high for the US. Head east 100 miles and the food is the same as everywhere else: factory output even though that’s where a lot of food is grown! In California, most of the state (by land) is red state poor and votes accordingly. However 60+% of the population lives in a couple of blue state rich pockets, hence the politics. This is why, for example, at the national level the leader of the House of Representatives and the leader of its opposition are both from California.
