Living in a crazy, fast world, makes you sometimes think of how life was a long time a go, when we didn't have access to all our daily 'comfort'.
I'm sure for many of you, it's a hell a lot easier to just go out there and buy a burger or a happy meal instead of cooking your own delicious fresh meals. Still t implies that you have your ingredients close by, and if you don't, you can always drive to the nearest market store and buy some "fresh vegetables". Right?
W R O N G !!!
All those freshly plucked tomatoes, cucumbers, onions on the shelves are not that fresh.
In fact the reality is depressive.. Just look at the facts :
- it would take 2-3 days for the delivery truck to get to that store depending on traffic, unloading points, problems with orders and so on
- market employees could not be that fast on unloading, setting price tags, offers, sorting your fresh vegetables as soon as they arrive in the warehouse
- even the farmer that actually plucked the vegetables would not wake up at 3 AM in the morning so you can eat fresh vegetables at 8 AM
Alternatives? Anyone?
If you live in a nice neighborhood with a little available space you could actually make yourself a little Eden of fresh food, or even better, a greenhouse is a great idea if u want to enjoy them fresh most of the year round.
What happens though if u live in a small apartment? i guess you are DOOMED....
Just joking, calm down, no panic, you could easily grow some vegetables in small flower pots, you know just for the enjoyment and thrill of eating hand grown food.
It can also makes us a lot more responsible and stress free, when we take care of such blooming life, don't you think?
