    Hey now, don't be upset because I upset your child like view of the world...

    Just rest assured that simply because a label says "artisan" or a dude at a Farmer's market says "yurrr! I grew dems my own self"...it's often unlikely the case.

    Lets hug.

    Your world view is incorrect. I have lived in a rural area and on Saturdays walked through the outdoor farmer market on my way to work and I knew a lot of the people that sold stuff there. They were real family farmers packaging their stuff.

    They even had artisan soaps. Locally produced honey and chocolates. I live in a city now and haven't been to the farmer market here but I imagine it's probably similar to what you describe.

    But probably not to that extent. There are plenty of rural communities around the greater Toronto area. I guess you American city slickers don't have that luxury of farm to table

    lol no.

    rolex is just entry level luxury watch.

    go read a watch magazine sometimes.

    You think all of America is city?

    I lived the rural life 20yrs ago, with my 6 acres, hundreds of quail, chickens, pheasants and goats...we sold pickled Quail eggs to local restaurants and businesses

    ...that doesn't make me a fucking artisan...lololol

    I used to live on perch since catching anything bigger was a pain in the ass sitting til night time to catch, bull frogs all parts, foxes asses eaten out, and hell leeches in my salads..it was awesome to spit out and eat over several times...more blood the better. better than any high class steak worth a dollar 98..

    the tougher it was to get to the blood the better

    Well if you couldn't find locally produced farm products at a farmer's market in a rural area that just goes to show how far the American farming industry has fallen.

    Most Americans are ignorant to things like that and just prefer to shop at Costco because it's cheap. That also happens here. I used to live near the US border and people would drive down there just to buy groceries because of how cheap it was even after paying for all that gas money

    Huh?

    I didn't say anything like that...You are buying into the idea that it's somehow better...when in reality it's likely to be worse..unregulated...enjoy your salmonella and pesticide poisoning.

    Well it gets inspected here. What you are describing is a failing industry. It's not like that where I live. Everything gets inspected no matter how small.

    Do American schools also have penis inspection day? That was the worst. I hated getting in front of the nurse and having to pull my pants down

    Didn't go to American school. English remember.

    But we had a sports master Mr Dunnit (what an ironic name) that had this rule we couldn't wear anything under our shorts...before each lesson he'd line us up and have us pull the front waistband of our shorts out so he could see that we were not wearing any underpants.

    He'd also watch us in the showers after sports and say things like "Come on lad! wash everywhere!"

    Back in those innocent days none of us new about pedos.

    what kind of freedom loving man would like to have all his food inspected.

    food regulation is just a few degrees away from absolute big brother police state.

    If the choice is paying $1 for an inspected turnip

    or

    $4 for an "artisan" turnip

    I'll want all mine inspecting.

    A fucking turnip is a fucking turnip...as me old mum used to say.
