What's even more fucked up is we are overproducing food on a scale that is destroying the soil and a huge portion of food goes to waste well before it is even processed for sale (don't feel upset for tossing away leftovers... all of our leftovers combined are a drop in the waste bucket).

Yet despite this they insist on cutting more and more corners. In the 19th they did this and produced highly toxic results... and it was not only outlawed, but American food production made the prices so cheap that it was not needed anymore.

Yet we have shit being done today that would still shock people back then.
