Welcome to Whole Life.

"The sense of entitlement to 'cheap food' is actually a relatively new phenomenon and paralleled the rise of industrial agriculture and large scale monocropping and CAFOs. As recently as the 1930s, Americans spent an average of 34% of their income on food. By the 1990s, this figure had dropped to 9.5%. By contrast, of course, healthcare costs have skyrocketed during this same period, along with a concurrent rise in chronic disease."
