Seasonal food

Supermarkets have more or less wiped out the greengrocers that were a feature of every high street in my youth. and with them went the recognition that food is - and should be - seasonal.  My local supermarket stocks "fresh" broccoli, potatoes and even strawberries throughout the year.  That is not traditional, and it is not natural.  And across the Channel it is not the norm. There markets continue to thrive in towns and villages, mostly selling locally sourced, and flavorsome, produce.  Vive la France !
