And I've heard there are people out there growing rogue food in home gardens and even growing chickens and other animals that aren't tagged in the National Animal Identification System. That, of course, poses health problems to us all and is quite scarey. I'm just really concerned about that and the socialization and the way children won't know how to eat in the real world if this home-eating thing continues like this. That and unregulated eating like this could have drastic health consequences and be a real burden on the Universal Federal Health Care System. I don't see how that can really be administered fairly if people are allowed to just decide for themselves what they are going to eat - at least the system is fair when everyone is eating the same thing and then health problems can be tracked and the expenses are justly distributed, and we know the food has been tracked. I think, at the least, that people that want to do this should be properly trained and licensed having these makeshift "home-kitchens," if that is what they want to call them, inspected regularly. |
And besides all that, what are these homecooking parents doing to prepare their children for eating in the real world? They can isolate and pamper them until adulthood, but what happens when junior finds himself in the workplace with all sorts of people, even some who eat bananas with peanut butter or mayonaise on hot dogs? How will they know how to interact with them? And how will this affect their nutrio-socialization? The office cafeteria will be a terrifying place for these deprived diners!
