The Problem

The Hidden Costs of an "Illusion of Choice"

You're not alone if you sense something is fundamentally broken in our food system. We, especially those who value authenticity, engaged action, and a holistic understanding of our world, spend precious time seeking quality, yet something often feels off.

The pervasive myth is that "I have a lot of options when I buy food, so I can always find what's best for my family and me." This is largely an "illusion of choice". Many seemingly diverse brands are owned by just a few colossal corporations through "roll-up" strategies, prioritizing efficiency and profit over genuine variety.

"I spend so much time comparing brands at the grocery store, thinking I'm getting something different, but then I find out they're all owned by the same company. It's frustrating!".

The Myth Exposed

Why current solutions fall short

Fragmented Fixes: We’ve all tried to fix this. Perhaps you've diligently composted at home or made an effort to buy produce at the farmers market. But these well-intentioned individual efforts, while important, are simply not enough to tackle the massive systemic problems. The core myth impacting our efforts is the belief that fragmented, market-driven solutions or individual actions, without fundamental shifts in power, policy, and economic priorities, can truly transform our food system.

Root Cause: These issues are "interconnected symptoms of a deeply problematic infrastructure". The U.S. food system fundamentally shifted over the last century from fulfilling basic needs to satisfying profit margins, driven by capitalism and efficiency. "Bigness is the problem", and merely shifting liability or imposing temporary fixes won't dismantle this concentrated power.
