How Modern Society Lost Its Connection to Food

Joel Salatin of Polyface Farms argues that the lack of a true food culture in the U.S. has led to a society that prioritizes convenience over quality, with ultra-processed foods and fast food dominating the landscape. Unlike Europe, where food is deeply rooted in tradition and taste, American eating habits have historically been about satiation rather than appreciation. This cultural disconnect from food’s origins has contributed to a detachment from regenerative farming and sustainable practices. However, Salatin believes change can start with the younger generation through hands-on experiences like school gardens, where children learn the value of real food, the realities of nature, and the impact of their choices—bridging the gap between food, health, and sustainability.
