Taste the fresh, local difference

“A significant part of the pleasure of eating is in one’s accurate consciousness of the lives and the world from which food comes. Eating with the fullest pleasure – pleasure, that is, that does not depend on ignorance – is perhaps the profoundest enactment of our connection with the world. In this pleasure we celebrate our dependence and our gratitude, for we are living from mystery, from creatures we did not make and powers we cannot comprehend.”

-Wendell Berry
