New Urban Tragedy: A carton of Milk

The tragedy of the new urban condition: Everything has to be transported from close and far.

Bananas from South Africa, tomatos from California, oranges from Florida, cheries from Okanagan, grapes from Chili wine from France and Wisky from Scotland and so on......

 

Add to these a Carton of Milk form the corner mini-mart , a 3-minute drive, and you have the makings of an urban tragedy.

 

In Roman times it was different: Food spices were brought in from India and silk from China and some staples and beer from Egypt.
