That's a totally reasonable answer and was an unfair assumption on my part. I grew up in an area where people hunted and fished because there wasn't any stores around, and therefore everyone knew where their food came from. Not really living in urban areas means i have had very little chances of meeting someone like that, and so that's what was so confusing to me. That's still so wild, though, to not even know what you're actually eating.

Don't worry, it's easy to do. I thought similarly at the time and teased her for it, and only really thought more about it a few years later when I was working in a school and it became clear just how many 11 year olds had never done stuff like go to the seaside before. I'm in the UK. The furthest you can get from the sea is only 50 miles.
