In an article published this week on a Psychology Today blog, Essig makes the case that local food, eaten mindfully, can fundamentally improve your life.

在这周发表在“今日心理”博客的一篇文章中，Essig认为，专注地吃本土食品可以极大丰富人们的生活。

But now Essig is giving us another reason: buying food from local farmers and producers (presumably at a farmer's market) is a way to socialize and make connections.

但是现在，Essig给了我们另外一个原因：从当地的农场和生产者中购买食物(假设是在一个农场的超市中)这是一种社会化和增强彼此联系的方法。

Our tendencies to overeat, and eat junk food "deprive ourselves and our intimates of the many psychological satisfactions and pleasures that can come from eating sustainably," Essig writes.

暴食、吃垃圾食品的倾向会“剥夺我们自己和周围人由于可以持续吃东西而感受到的愉悦感。”Essig写道。
