America Revealed: Pizza Delivery

You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video

AMERICA REVEALED takes viewers on a journey high above the American landscape to reveal the country as never seen before. Join host Yul Kwon (Winner of “Survivor: Cook Islands”) to learn how this machine feeds nearly 300 million Americans every day. Discover engineering marvels created by putting nature to work, and consider the toll our insatiable appetites take on our health and environment. Embark with Kwon on a trip that begins with a pizza delivery route in New York City, then goes across the country to California’s Central Valley, where nearly 50 percent of America’s fruits, nuts and vegetables are grown, and into the heartland for an aerial look at our farmlands. Meet the men and women who keep us fed – everyone from industrial to urban farmers, crop-dusting pilots to long-distance bee truckers, modern-day cowboys to the pizza deliveryman.

    Eat one meal/day, save 2/3 of America! All prices will treble to keep the economy booming. Said excised pelf will be redistributed to Con-Agra and Archer-Daniels-Midland, er, to farmers (less 30% processing fees).

    End bee truckers! We want free-ranging bees. No more apple trees incarcerated in orchards, no more corn enslaved in rows, no more Velveeta. Calories want to be free! Heavily subsidized studies must be done by diversity experts retained for their lack of objective qualification. Every step of food production, from seed to market receipt, gives unfair advantage to the able and discriminates against the deserving. Seize the stolen wealth of our nation from those who have pilfered productivity by dint of their expertise and labor.
