> I'm always dumbfounded hearing about the American way to think about food, all you can readily buy is so industrialized, you miss so much. I think you're dumbfounded because you don't understand how Americans think about food, except what you hear on the Internet. Which, I shouldn't have to point out, is mostly a load of horseshit. America is the land of farms as far as the eye can see, growing all kinds of different foods. We have wonderful foods. I can go into a bog standard Kroger right now and there's an entire wing of the store with fresh fruits and vegetables, another area with hundreds of different cheeses from around the world. I can even buy common European brands of butter (though I prefer our local stuff). And this is a bland everyday American supermarket, not one of the many local farmer's markets. Sometimes I wonder where Europeans get their crazy ideas about what it's like to live in America.
