Most of what is farmed in Mississippi and the rest of the country isn’t food that goes on Americans’ tables. It is soybeans grown for animal feed, corn grown for ethanol, rice grown to export to Central America and so on. The fruits and vegetables that Mississippians eat are probably grown in California or in other countries.
Pretty much anywhere that historically grew cotton yeah. Enough that recommended limits are like one serving per week. Lmao I eat three servings per day 😭
But yeah cali and imported rice is mostly fine, and at least for me hasn’t been too much more expensive.
