Christian Nestell BoveeFifty years ago, the way that we consumed food was revolutionized. We began eating processed foods, and it seemed amazing.

And the child is wise. The real meat comes back to him more savory for having been dipped in a storyโฆby putting bread, gold, horse, apple, or the very roads into a myth, we do not retreat from reality: we rediscover it.
