went to village shop yesterday
bought a bunch of local village bakery foods, still using old recipes from childhood, instead of the hyper-sugarized/overtlysweet + various mystery powders for "always perfect looking baking products" from the biggest country-wide bakery companies.
it tastes really good
significantly way better than most of the supermarket bakery products of today, and they taste like the stuff i ate as a kid more
i wouldnt be able to say that shop-prepared-semi-mass-produced-food was better back in the day, if it werent for these old village shops. kept up only by the emotion-fueled-mission enthusiasm of the elderly 70 year old women. The shops that have no chance of continuing once those women die. The shops that have no inheritants.
I was speaking to one of the shopkeeps of such a store at the end of this summer, and asked her in detail of the story of that shop+house. She said she'll keep running it for about 3 years. Then, the X anniversary of her running the shop (was like 50 or 40 years straight) will hit, and then she said she'll probably close up the shop.
Its beautiful and it's sad. all these better recipes for mass produced products will essentially be lost. Obviously, some horrible soviet-recipes will be lost too, but should the, much better, seemingly 1-to-1 equivalents of today's foods be lost in tandem?
