Most young children consider the local supermarket the source for their food, and quite logically so. Urban children are especially uninformed when it comes to knowing what food looks like in its natural state: that French fries start as potatoes growing underground, that bread begins as grain on stalks in wheat fields, or that maple syrup is drawn from trees. This photo essay takes a look at a variety of childhood favorites, tracing different kinds of foods back to their source in words and photographs.
