Or as Wendell Berry put it: "People are fed by the food industry, which 
pays no attention to health, and are healed by the health industry, 
which pays no attention to food."

Whoever really has considered the lilies of the field or the birds of the air 
and pondered the improbability of their existence in this warm world within 
the cold and empty stellar distances will hardly balk at the turning of water 
into wine--which was, after all, a very small miracle. We forget the greater 
and still continuing miracle by which water (with soil and sunlight) is 
turned into grapes.  ~Wendell Berry
