The food industry is a control paradigm system.

The food industry is a control
paradigm system.
We are far
removed, in physical distance and
emotional distance, from the food
we eat. We lose our connection to
the earth; we have no connection
with the plants and animals that
were processed, packaged, and
shipped to us.
You can opt out of the food
industry. You can be an omnivore,
vegetarian, vegan, macrobiotic, or
raw. You can slow down. You can
prepare your own food. You can
take time to think about what
you put into your body and how
it affects you. You can drive down
the street, passing by restaurant
after restaurant, thinking to
yourself, “That one’s not for me.
That one’s not for me.”
don’t even think about the food

we eat. We eat by default, we eat
for emotional reasons, we eat as
a social activity. We eat without
considering our choices.


who abuse power, peers who abuse
each other, unrealistic expectations,
and demented role models. There’s
no tolerance for difference, no room
for personal expression.

If we all lived in community and


connection with one another and
with ourselves, we could certainly
come up with a better solution
than this.
If everyone opted out of politics,
who would run the country? Who
would run the world?
We would. Together.
