well i agree with you, and I wouldn't knock food transport and scale provided it is done in a sustainable and non toxic way.
but i definitely take issue with the "weird pleasure" comment, as there is nothing weird about the pleasure of farming in the city and growing your own food. It's about one of the most engaging cultural practices in existence, and it's as old as people. But it takes learning and practice, and awareness of that value, which is clearly missing in modern culture which views farming as some sort of weird thing. A weird peasure indeed!
