"It's also worth remembering how inexpensive food is these days. Americans
shell out about 10% of their disposable income on food, about half what
they spent in the first part of the 20th century. Producing a budget-priced

what about the 'externalized' costs associated with chemical foods. Studies
are in short supply, but obesity and related medical expenses come to mind.
