Via Tim Worstall, a Guardian food twit called Rosie Boycott writes:

… we also need to examine how we use the spaces in our cities to ensure that we have a chance of freeing ourselves from our current dependency on multinationals who have only their shareholders’ interests at heart – not the most basic needs of a nation, and of a planet.

Sigh.

And those shareholders in their greed and wickedness want the multinationals do do well via selling masses of food to anyone who wants to buy it.

This is why we have the amazing variety of food we now enjoy.

I visited Moscow in 1986. There was almost no food at all in the shops.

Why?

Because everything Rosie Boycott wanted was there.

No multinationals.

Lots of tiny-scale allotments in dachas.

No eco-unfriendly transport of food.

No packaging.

That’s the way forward.
