The HowStuffWorks site has a fun article revealing 10 Quirky Facts of Mass Produced Food. To be fair it is not all bad. Using seaweed extract to keep ice cream creamy sounds like an ingeneous idea, the benefits of frozen vs. fresh, and how Worcestershire is made were pretty interesting. But then you have the sugar in your french fries, 50 chemicals to make something taste like a strawberry, and how they make things red (shudder).
I’ll take my locally harvested fresh strawberries any day.
