RE: Today's Sustainable Feast in the Garden of Eden
I love how you guys keep reiterating the importance of food and sharing it with people you love. I find nowadays, families are too "busy" to eat with each other and it creates all sorts of negative effects such as mindless eating (eating in front of the TV, for example), neglect from a child's perspective and loads more. Food is so primal, just like when our ancestors would hunt and eat and share around the bonfire at night. What happened to those times? It doesn't matter, you guys are creating that right now. Keep up the good work, you guys are inspiring more people than you know.
Thank you @victoriacalloway! Yes modern people have very dysfunctional relationships with food, but as we demonstrate it does not have to be that way! Options are available! It may not currently be realistic for everyone to cook over fire as we do, but the point is that there are options - it doesn't have to look just like us, but it doesn't have to look just like it has been in modern society for a long time, this culture of fast food and microwaves and mindless eating in front of the TV like you mention. The possibility for a much more meaningful relationship with food - and truly with EVERYTHING - exists!
