Swedish tomato ketchup

Just how energy inefficient the food system is can be
seen in the crazy case of the Swedish tomato ketchup.
Researchers at the Swedish Institute for Food and
Biotechnology analysed the production of tomato ketchup. The
study considered the production of inputs to agriculture,
tomato cultivation and conversion to tomato paste (in
Italy), the processing and packaging of the paste and other
ingredients into tomato ketchup in Sweden and the retail and
storage of the final product. All this involved more than 52
transport and process stages.


Hmmmmmmm.

We prefer to be referred to as "sanitary engineers".
