Over one billion tonnes of food wasted a year - UN

[Skybird]

It is a European fact that half of the potatoes produced here gets destroyed immediately becasause their shape is not geometrically perfect enough to be brought to the markets, they would not be bought, they say. That'S queer.

And the food prices has seen prices growing in the third world becasue agricultural farm land is used to produce plants that are to be turned into gas to feed our thirsty cars. That is not queer anymore, that is straightout perverse.

And while we talk about cutting traffic emissions, we import potatoes from Egtypt to Germany and denmark, as if German and Danish farmers do not produce them themselves. That is dumb.

People of the past used to chnage their daily food plan according to what was available at the various seasons of the year. Today, we think everything must be available edvery day around the whole year. That is - well, I would rate it as a form of hysteria.
