I find myself wondering how we have gotten to the point that we take as the norm food after it has been processed and extruded from some machine. Take for example my healthy choice dinner tonight, the mashed potatoes have been extruded (probably under very high pressure) into a form similar to tator tots, and this is so normal we never think about it as being wrong or in any way odd.
Don't get me wrong, I like the taste of the food, but it almost seems like a perversion of nature to consume food that has been processed to the point that we can relate it to other processed food, but not to the original organic material. Oddly enough to finish out matters cooking takes place in a microwave... where we are essentially subjection the food that is to be consumed to radiation, now tell me that is not food for thought.
