I don't want to rant but long story short I'm the closest thing short of a treehugger and if it was up to me we'd all live in a hole in the ground in a forest and never see a tv or computer in our lives.

I urge anyone who is considering going overseas from North America for vacation or a trip: Go to the country (again, not the American country) even if it's Europe, say France Italy or Germany. Ideally, South Africa or the Caucasus.

Now, eat an apple. Or a pear, or a peach, or a cucumber or a tomato. Just try one, from a tree.

IT FUCKING TASTES BEAUTIFUL. YOU"LL NEVER EAT AMERICAN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AGAIN. SHIT HERE IS PLASTIC, MOTHERFUCKER. THERE ARE REAL FUCKING APPLES GROWING ON TREES THE WAY TREES WERE SUPPOSED TO GROW BEFORE MONSANTO SHAT ALL OVER OUR ECOSYSTEM. They're yummy, seriously.

America can be that. We have some of the most beautiful national parks on the planet. Let's teach ourselves to use the unprotected lands with respect, moderation, and love. Cause that's really all you need for some damn tasty apples.
