re: Many food and agricultural varieties going "extinct"?

Mainly cause it specifically says our ancestors picked certain foods and allowed others to go extinct. They picked those best suited to feed the population.

They didn't inject chemicals into their soil or choose bullshite tomatoes with the texture of sandpaper over better tomatoes. They picked what would grow best in their local area, and what momma decide to cook was determined by the growing seasons and what they had on hand. Our regional dishes scream this. You just have to pay attention.
