The funny thing about the current food system is that the concepts have been around forever, it's only the ingredients that have changed. If you think about it, almost everything you'd consider unhealthy today has healthy or at least way less dangerous origins. For example today's high fructose corn syrup, red dye 40 and seed [...]
