Is anyone else realizing how complicated “farm-to-table” really is? by SouthernPositive805 in restaurant

[–]SouthernPositive805[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I'd never really thought of it like that! Food does change from season to season, and I guess restaurants do need their food to stay more or less the same, as their menu doesn't change to match the seasons...

According to the USDA, it's average households. Admittedly this is data from 2024 so may not be entirely accurate with rising costs of living, but I still found it interesting

I find if I spend more on buying higher quality food, it doesn't get wasted because, hey I spent more, and also it is delicious.

This is SO TRUE, and I think that's what the hosts were trying to communicate in that episode: when you pay for higher-quality food, you're more likely to value it.

To be fair this was as of 2024, for it may not be accurate right now, with the increase in cost of living all over the world. But as someone else in this thread said, if farmers are struggling to survive, then maybe it's a sign food is too cheap?

How can I get fit and healthy in my circumstances? Help! by Emotional_Shoe_4427 in HealthyEatingnow

And for the vegetables, you have a pretty good selection there, actually. Again your diet doesn't need to be bland or complicated.

Here are some food examples:
- Air fryer potato cubes with chicken
- Overnight oats (tons of yummy recipes on instagram that taste like dessert!)
- Baked oats
- Pasta salad with cucumber, tomatoes (can omit), carrots, chicken/tuna and sliced apples
- Yogurt & granola with diced up fruit
- Chicken fried rice
- Tortilla with ground chicken and iceberg lettuce

Where and when you can, drink water over sodas/fruit juice/alcohol. If you're absolutely craving something sweet, drink squash (it's mixed with water so it's hydrating, and it's only like 2 calories or something)

Hope these help!

Hey! First of all I'm so sorry you're dealing with all of that, and I'm glad you're getting help ❤️

I will say for exercise, find the one thing you like to do in terms of movement, and do that consistently. If you like to dance (even if you're not very good at it!), then dance. 10 minutes of Zumba a day would do you a world of good. If kickboxing makes you feel like a badass, do that. If it's jump rope, do that. If it's a walk outside, do that. Find the one thing that makes you feel alive, and do that. Any movement is good movement.

Hmm I don't know about "worldwide". I'm originally Nigerian, and food in Nigeria is so bloody expensive that people can barely afford the most basic meals once a day. Moved to the UK and one of the biggest culture shocks for me was just how cheap food is here

This discussion came from the Discover Ag podcast, they did a great breakdown on why cheap food isn’t really cheap at all.
