In the same way I've spoken about another article titled, "Plastic or Paper", I ended with the idea of seeing people in these two simple categories. Perhaps it simply means, people that matter about themselves, the earth and its people and people who just don't give a rats butt about it. Perhaps it means people who eat healthy and follow health trends and people who eat the same thing without caring. Perhaps
All these food articles I've been catching up at the cashier's rack during the slow days has got me thinking a lot about the revolution of grocery shopping. No more apron wearing women with make-up, high hears, tight-waist hand-stitched cotton dresses and perfectly curled hair. Cans, boxes, microwave meals and frozen peas are no longer the foods of the elite. It seems, over time, we have evolved back into the time of the farmers and hippies.
Though my ancestors were still off fishing and farming off a port town in faraway China, women in America are beginning to choose items from canned, to fresh.
So for research, I have begun to observe and take mental document on the choices my customers make. For the regulars, I will closely observe their skin clarity, alertness, body shape and clothes to compare with their choice of foods. Do all A-type people eat clean and healthy? Do all slobs inject their bodies with alcohol, sugars, high fatty foods and cheese steaks? Do all people with chaotic wallets and untucked shirts buy microwave dinners and Cheetos?
And over time, I would like to find out what makes healthy people healthy?
