When i was a teenage, maybe 40-45 years ago, one of my cousins (Debbie) had small homestead where they raised the majority of the family's food. My cousins sister (Vicki) refused to eat Debbie's farm fresh eggs because "they came outta a chickens butt". Both girls were raised in a small town, Debbie moved to the country and Vicki to the city. I don't think it was a case of intelligence as much as no exposure to the country on Vicki's part. I've watched my own kids and their peers and have decided its our own fault that they missed the boat on what rural life is all about. Many life skills have been lost.
