Food for thought

As we see fuel cost escalating quickly and close on its heels rising food prices, it is time to think a little harder about where are food comes from, who is making money on it and if this is the best process. Here is a link to a story from the USDA on the current breakdown on where our food dollar goes. While it probably raises more questions than it answers, it is an eye opener. Take a moment to read the story, look at the comments and start developing your own ideas about this important issue in our world today: http://www.foodpolitics.com/2011/02/usda-recalculates-distribution-of-food-dollar/
