With the recent salmonella scare and the eggs, one wonders if the food supply is all that safe. Out of necessity, we must put a lot of trust in food supplyers and our local grocer. What would the life be like if we had to depend on local sources, like the farmer down the road to supply us with our eggs and milk? Would all of us migrate to the country? That wouldn't be possible. But, what is the alternative? Should there be stricter inspections? Do-it-yourself tester kits for bacteria?
I say that maybe we should move toward a more sustainable model of living. It wouldn't take that much. A vegetable garden, a few chickens, a goat or two. Maybe we could go fishing on the weekend instead of wine tasting. What do you all think?
