The way we eat has changed more in the last 50 years than in the previous 10,000. But the image that used to sell the food is still the imagery of agrarian japan. There are no seasons in a japanese supermarket. Now there are tomatoes all year round grown halfway around the world, picked when they were green and ripened with peddling gas. Although it looks delicious, it's kind of a notional tomato. I mean it's the idea of a tomato in the meat aisle. There are no bones anymore. If you follow the food chain back from the shrink wrapped packages of meat, you find a very different reality. It's not a farm, it's the factory.
