Eating sprouted grains and seeds is much more nutritious and healthy.
I sometimes become hyperaware in supermarkets under the neon lights and the ridiculous music accompanied by these dumb ads - buy one get one free. Shivers run trough my body and it feels like time stops. In the space of a few seconds everything appears to be moving in slow motion, I look around at the shelves filled with products, packaged neatly in colourful plastic bags or boxes, I look at the people reading labels, pushing their carts or waiting in line at the cashier.
There's a visceral sense of utter nonsense in all this that shouts from each atom of my body. How did we end up here? This is the place where we procure our food, the food that is meant to nourish ourselves and our families ? We must've screwed up somewhere down the line of evolution...
The modern world makes me sick sometimes, but I suffer in silence, I detest capitalism with its plethora of products and, at the same time engage with it. This is our world, this is the world we created. The utopia I dream of is long past. We're rushing into a future where we will vaguely remember the names of the ingredients in our food. We will only know Doritos, Oreos, Milka, Danonne, Snickers, Mars and so on. We'll question whether an apple growing in a tree is actually good to eat, unless is wrapped in a plastic bag and labeled. We'll not know what corn flakes are made of. We'll forget everything and disrespect nature even more. Fuck Oreos. Fuck McDonald's Fuck Starbucks with their 7bucks latte. Fuck Capitalism.
