Lasagna (:

The lasagna I had for dinner tonight was made of ground beef from somewhere in the US, tomatoes from Georgia (they were bought at a local produce store), cheese from the US (maybe Wisconsin...), Italian spices from overseas, and noodles made from grains probably grown in the US. The salad accompanying my lasagna consisted of iceberg lettuce, spinach and cucumbers, all grown in the US (bought from Publix), cheese from the US, and ranch dressing with ingredients most likely grown within the US.
Looking at these ingredients, it's pretty obvious that most of my meal was grown or produced in the US, showing that we have a very well rounded agricultural system. The various climates and terrains across the country allow the US to grow just about anything, from wheat to tomatoes, while leaving plenty of room for livestock. This is a huge reason that our country can export larger amounts of food products than we have to import.
Also, this meal was fairly healthy; most of the lasagna was made by hand so it wasn't extremely processed and parts of the salad were "organic." I'm sure, however, that the vegetables and beef had their fair share of hormones and chemicals despite being "fresh" and not frozen.
