Which is exactly what our ancestors thought when they picked and chose what foods were best to feed them.
our ancestors ate what they could grow locally and get their hands on in season. They didn't go to the super market and deliberate on what product to buy that wasn't in season simple because they wanted it.

Has nothing to do with what the article is saying nor my point.

My great grandfather operated what was the big general merchandise store in Thibodaux a century ago. His name is still on the building. Every thing that could be bought with cash was in the store and that included groceries fresh and canned.
