Three decades after Wendy's debuted its signature ad campaign, "Where's the beef?" is still a meme. And we've never elected a vegetarian to the White House. It's no surprise, then, that the average American ate roughly 220 pounds of meat in 2018—a new record. The Making of Meat Eating America https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2012/06/26/155720538/the-making-of-meat-eating-america We eat a lot of meat in this country; per person, more than almost anywhere else on Earth. Pill Food: A Staple of SciFi https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20120221-food-pills-a-staple-of-sci-fi It is a constant theme of early science fiction, and one you are almost certainly familiar with: the man or woman of the future pops a pill on to their tongue, knocks it back and is almost immediately satisfied. For inside the little white capsule was a full three course meal, designed to mimic the meals of the past in a single convenient, portable dose. The Gherkin King! Dill or no dill (lol) https://www.abc.net.au/local/archives/landline/content/2012/s3456080.htm When we last caught up with Griffith gherkin grower Tony Parle, he was making a quick buck out of fast food. Almost two decades on, he's still McDonald's sole supplier of the much loved, and loathed, pickle. But as Kerry Staight reports, making gold out of green has been an endurance test of extreme highs and lows. As much as 90 percent of Americans could eat food grown within 100 miles of their home https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2015/06/05/as-much-as-90-percent-of-americans-could-eat-food-grown-within-100-miles-of-their-home/ There are so many mantras of the modern day food movement that keeping track of any one single goal can be a tall task. But no matter whom you ask, there seems to be at least one concern that arises time and time again. The ascent of big food companies, which have allowed Americans to eat more foods, more cheaply, and at more times of the year than ever before, has led to a massive decline in the amount of food we source from nearby farms.
