Buy local, buy fresh and you can't go wrong.
I worked as a Chef for 20 years pre internet, never once do I recall buying an American product, nearly every other major country I could name several imports used, each has there own specialities. But USA.. nadda.
I could tell you now if I put.. "American Steak" on a menu, no one would order it no matter how good it was, simply on fear of what additives or steroids were used in the production.
I've been in the USA many times and eaten at many world class places there but try and explain that to others upon leaving the USA and your basically laughed at. The reputation internationally for your produce is not the best, and it was trashed a long time ago.
I don't know how the USA recovers from that, but its certainly not going to be by rolling back regulations like Trump is trying.
