What am I eating?
This past Monday night I had a brave spell and decided to make homemade ravioli. When I say homemade, I mean homemade! I made the pasta and the spinach filling. When I think about all the raw ingredients I realize that even something homemade can contain a lot of "processed" things. Eggs, pepper, and spinach are the only ingredients that I would consider to be raw in the ravioli. All of the rest are not in their natural "state". Where did all of them come from? I would like to think they were grown by a cute old farmer somewhere, but I do not think that this is a correct image. All I know the food could come from China or Mexico, isn't that where everything in America comes from? Most of my family members have their own gardens and I think there is a huge difference from home-grown to mass produced. The biggest difference in the food is not necessarily where it's produced as much as it how. All most Americans care about is how fast it takes to cook, not what is in it or where it comes from.
