~What foods do you guys know of that aren't as good as they used to
be?
~Here's the ones I know.

~1. Salmon. They have farm raised salmon which is inferior to
~wild-caught salmon because the farm salmon lacks omega 3 fatty acids,
~which are important for many human physiological functions, including
~the creation of more serotonin, which helps fight depression.
~
~2. Coffee. I heard that the average coffee is lower quality than it
~used to be, because at some time, maybe in the 70's, there was a
coffee
~shortage, which resulted in lower coffee quality. And ever since
then,
~Americans have become accustomed to drinking lower quality coffee.
~(However, I'm sure high quality coffee is still available if you look
~for it)
~
~3. Meat - Americans used to eat a lot of wild meat 100 or more years
~ago. Once again, it had omega 3 fatty acids, which farm raised meats
~lack. (By the way, I take fish oil pills which have the omega 3
acids).
Tomatoes.
Grapes. (Just checked the concords at my Mom's house--no sugar yet,
but bluing up nicely.)
Chicken.
