      America’s closest crop that it has 130% of in vast fields?

      Bungalows.

      America grows bungalows. And while the vast expanse of bungalow fields are expensive to raise and feed, those bungalows are valuable first-food to the fire-tornadoes and seasonal floods.

      It’s farm products. I don’t think it’s any better or worse than American farms.

      Most meals are cooked at home and people do expect fresh produce. The milk in stores was tapped the same morning, vegetables are crispy green and minced meat is red. A negative side is that we do have an incredible waste of food here, because people set high standards. Nobody buys anything on the “best before”-date.

      I think the quality of food in USA is very dependent on location, distribution and preparation. Surely there is fresh food in US too, but it won’t be in the drive-thru.
