Last night me and my family had a pizza for dinner. It is truly amazing how something as simple as a pizza take so much to make. The ingredients in this pizza are not just from one place but from everywhere in the world. How did people ever accomplish this in the old days? Did they ever have the variety that we have today when it comes to fruits and vegetables? Our generation and culture take this for granted. We do not really think about where our food comes from in the world. We just eat it. Something as someone’s favorite fruit today could have been impossible to find in the olden days. Is our food complete safe with it coming from around the world? How have laws changed to accommodate this food revolution that is the modern world? Is our food safe today than it was back then or do we still have problems with quality? How have quantity of these ingredients impacted recipes and the style that our modern society cooks? Does modern food have more flavor?
