I think that food is generally been a high percentage of income in society until housing and other expenses go crazy. I could be wrong, but it would be interesting to look at pre-1913 levels.

Even you look at the proportion of time that most historical societies (around the globe) spend on food, it's probably quite high even when food is abundant.

Industrialized food changes that, and not for the better

But we're in agreement that sudden change now - when most people are struggling to keep a roof over their heads - is terrible.
