I'd say there's a more naturalistic approach to both gardening and
flower arranging now, so perhaps that's reflected in food too,
especially when edible flowers are added.

There's a vegan in the club my wife belongs to. In her opinion the natural way
to grow vegetables is to buy a packet of "organic" vegetable seeds and scatter
them on unprepared ground. You can guess the result.


Tell her just to throw the Euros on the ground and let other people
benefit from her ideas!


Maybe she is inspired by the biblical person who let his seeds fall on the
barren ground.


I once read of someone who called his budgie Onan for that very reason. ;-)
