Michael Pollan
Our food system depends on consumers’ not knowing much about it beyond the price disclosed by the checkout scanner. Cheapness and ignorance are mutually reinforcing. And it’s a short way from not knowing who’s at the other end of your food chain to not caring- to the carelessness of both consumers and producers.
Michael Pollan, The Omnivore's Dilemma

The industrial food complex polluted our food system to please the addicted palettes they created.
Donna Maltz, Conscious Cures: Soulutions to 21st Century Pandemics
