Healthy soil and sustainable growing

"I think that the essential aim is to shoot for the local, the general, rather than proscribe some/THE method."

I agree entirely.

The difficulty comes with the carefully veiled (from the consumer)
production and processing system and the impersonal point-of-sale.

Further, an increasingly urban population is more and more disconnected
from what their region brings and more and more connected to what the
global economy provides (Oil-Food).

I think some people simply get overwhelmed and choose a restricted diet
just so they know what to eat.  It's hard to figure out what to
eat these days for most people.

That's not to say that some of these specific diets don't hold real
value for some people, or that everyone couldn't benefit from aspects
of all of  them (for instance, eating less meat, but maybe not
zero).

I'm a fan of moderation and variety.
