Hi to all:

We are done with our report on food trends for 2011 and we made an analysis

to the year 1870:

2011 Trends Same as 1870

We are still experiencing the same trend in food that has been going on since

1870. One word describes it: efficiency. It applies to every stage of food

production.  Why did I pick 1870? That is the year when the percentage of

farmers

went from 58% to 47% in this country, which illustrates agricultural efficiency

as a population statistic.  A middling purifier was invented to produce a

superior

flour (more food processing). The first weather report was transmitted by

telegraph.

 Later in 1872, many fruits and vegetables were improved through better

agricultural

methods. And in 1874 margarine was produced.  And also in this year the pressure

cooker was invented to cook faster.  (Source:

)

Everyone wants more for less effort, which is how we become more efficient

and progress as a society. This still applies to our modern food chain:
