Interesting thought, if food was kept locally, only the people locally would have gotten sick from the recent out of salmonella, but can local sustain all your needs ? I am not sure for one on that, and what determines local 500 mile radius ? or do we go by state ? or maybe it should be by nation, but than since we are a melting pot of different ethnic groups that use different food and spices could we fill the needs ? interesting topic, if you had a garden would you be able to grow everything you need to continue to prepare your type of dishes you cook now ? I know I could not.
