Thank you for this. I actually lean into this and didn’t quite realize it or have the lovely articulation. I do make soup and share with my neighbors.. and how you framed it as access needs (to even get/buy the local fresh produce for example)… wow, that helped me with my own guilt over where I shop when I am able to spend money…. Really wonderful essay.

I really enjoyed this essay. I am someone that cooks at home everyday and tries to eat a very balanced diet. Yet, the other day, I really wanted ice-cream and ended up in Star Market buying something that was very promising (the idea). After eating a couple of spoonfuls, my husband asked what it tasted of. The “Southern Pecan” tasted of nothing much. A general vanilla flavor that disappointed me.
