The American picture shows why Americans will always have a hard time understanding the rest of the world... Each food is pre-packed -- meaning coming from a middle man (the supermarket). Even silly stuff like bacon or ground meat is coming from some unknown entity while in every other part of the world it comes from a local butcher or local vegetable marker (where you can meet in person the person directly dealing with your food)... Now, the local vegetable grower cannon pack his foods in fancy packaging so does that mean that they won't find buyers in US? Or is it the other way around, where to squeeze as much cents out of each food product US food is so crappy only fancy packaging somehow convinces us to buy it? Either way it's not a game that's played on local level as in other parts of the world thus at it's very center of US existence there are huge corporations.
