Or, they may prefer to eat the person delivering the whopper instead of the whopper itself.

i tend to side with modernity-- i've lived in the good old times and they weren't good (outhouses are horrible).

i'd propose however that the subjects not only get a taste test but also get their cholesterol levels measure, body fat, pancreatic function, etc.

o wait, didn't we have that done already?

I don't see it as modern times VS old times, so much as the fingers of corporate exploitation reaching further and further.

the rural people live in "old times", pastoral settings, no electricity, what have you. think of the amish.

burger king is a product of our post-capitalist, urbanized, progress-oriented, tech-intensive consumer society. (have you ever seen kooyanisqatsi?)

the conflict of city vs. country or corrupt present vs. idyllic past is a theme of poetry and philosophy and even politics dating back to the greeks and possibly beyond-- who knows what pangs of conscience the first city dwellers had.

exploitation? fingers? i dont know.

my dad who grew up in the amazon jungle tasted his first coca-cola at age 12 and he claims it was INCREDIBLE.
