The pandemic has exposed the systemic flaws of modern society, which can be summarised as (i) urbanisation, (ii) inconsiderate eating practices, (iii) lack of exercise in the form of longer-term, daily habits coupled with an ethos of physical wellness (iv) excessive confinement to closed spaces such as offices with heating or air conditioning. Cities combined with international trade make people oblivious to the realities of seasonal agricultural production, to the effect that they have no natural check on what they eat and when: for example, grapes grow towards the end of the summer and so a natural life cycle will prevent you from overdoing it by consuming them all year round.
