Love to spark an on-going conversation with the world about the politics of food. If a question strikes a chord, please comment. We will all learn.
Let’s start with this one:
The average household these days spends around 9.5% on food. In 1929, according to the USDA, food accounted for 23.4% of household expenditures. Do you know what percentage of household income you spend on food? What would you give up to get back to say, 20%?
