It's Americans in general. So many people here have no idea where the food at their supermarket comes from or how it's produced.

Reminds of an anegdotr, teachers in preschool sometimes use it on kids to teach them.

The teacher asks: "Where does milk come from?"

And the kids answer: "...the store?"

Like teaching kids about farms and shit is like where all this "learning stuff" starts here in Poland.

My young child learns about farms in stuff in school, but it's a super sanitized "Old MacDonald" style thing instead of seeing the horror of the factory style farms we have in this country lol.

I think there's a bit more education about farms for older kids in rural areas with proximity to agricultural labor, but yeah kinda uncommon here.

Plenty of kids nowadays have grandparents with a small farm, some people have chickens in towns or even the fucking city. Hell I had helped with a runaway chicken one time. A lot of this is still a remnant of PRL and it's non-existent collectivization of farm-land so we have a lot of elderly small farmers. Many of whom barely make ends meet, and are very, very reactionary. But still, kids get to milk cows and uhhhhh... Drink raw milk :no-i-in-pezza:
