RE: Tell Me Fellow Steemians, Where Does Your Food Come From?
I do think about these things every time I pick veggies and fruits from the shelves. Bulgaria's soils and climate are super good for growing a wide variety of tasty fruits and vegetables - tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, beans, berries, apples, plums - you name it. Nowadays, however, it's quite difficult to find Bulgarian fruits and vegetables in the supermarkets. You often see potatoes from Germany, tomatoes from Egypt, apples from Argentina, which makes you wonder what's happening. Like, how the fuck is it possible that apples from Argentina and potatoes from Germany are more cost effective than the Bulgarian ones?
Anyway, thank you for writing this wonderful article! I believe too that farmers' markets are the way to go.
WOW! See, that is exactly what I am talking about! It blows my mind! It's so ridiculously inconvenient! I know there are better ways, I hope that I continue to share them. Maybe you can grow some of your own food, especially if you have such great soil. I know a lot of countries are lacking in that department.
You are totally welcome and thank you for sharing this with me. Sometimes I like to pretend that there are places out there where this isn't a problem and that it's isolated... sadly it is not the case :(
We can work together to change things though! I'm happy to work on this together!
XO,
