Description

It’s hard to have a conversation about food without some value assignment taking place. From the start, there are “healthy” foods and “unhealthy” foods; cheap or expensive foods; rich or lean foods; organic or non-organic foods. There are many pairings, and all of them usually come with some sort of positive and negative bend, with individuals making the choice to select something “bad” or “good.” Time after time in this project, we’ve illuminated the ways that systems are designed to shift their intentionally designed failings as individual responsibilities; therefore, it should come as no surprise that our food system (including food bought out and brought home) in the United States, worth over 2 trillion dollars, is another place where obfuscation is occurring.
