"I think it's only now am I beginning to get a stronger feeling why this poem connects to Finland so deeply.

“Yes, part of the problem is junk food. There’s more of it, and it’s more alluring than ever. But nonjunk food is a bigger problem. It isn’t as flavorful as it used to be, which has the inverse effect of making junk food yet more enticing.

The more bland it becomes, the harder we try to make it seem real.”
