The Global Food Market


Somehow, I didn't expect that the global food market would extend to Vapi, Gujarat, India. I always thought that that was a first-world artifact -- only the wealthy could buy produce from around the world, taking advantage of seasonal fruits and vegetables from both hemispheres (plus the tropics). But here I am -- buying plums from California, apples from Washington, New Zealand, and India, pineapples from Hawaii, and oranges from Florida. And that's just the produce that is labeled. Surprising.
