Michael Pollan Zitate

To a very great extent, it's the fast-food industry that really industrialized our agriculture - that drove the system to one variety of chicken grown very quickly in confinement, to the feedlot system for beef, to giant monocultures to grow potatoes. All of those thing flow from the desire of fast-food companies for a perfectly consistent product.

Deutsche Übersetzung

In sehr hohem Maße ist es die Fast-Food-Industrie, die unsere Landwirtschaft wirklich industrialisiert hat. Sie hat das System zu einer sehr schnell in Gefangenschaft gezüchteten Hühnchenart, zu dem Feedlot-System für Rindfleisch und zu riesigen Monokulturen zum Anbau von Kartoffeln geführt. All diese Dinge entspringen dem Wunsch der Fast-Food-Unternehmen nach einem absolut konsistenten Produkt.
