of Plenty,\"it is a place where allpeople can succeed if they're motivated and if they tryhard enough.It's a place where all people can put foodon the table,as long as they're willing to work.  \nFood is grown all over this fertile country.In Florida,fruit literally falls from the trees.In California,thousandsof farms produce everything from avocados to zucchini,lettuce by the truckload,and untold bushels and barrelsand bags of tomatoes and cucumbers.In the heartland-places like lowa and Nebraska and Indiana-grains aregrown on endless fields,and millions of acres of cornand soybeans get their start.In the high plains of theWest,cattle and sheep graze and grow fat.And in all theplaces in between,on the coasts,and along the borders,there is no shortage of food in the United States.Go tomany town squares on a clear Saturday morning,and  \nLiving on the Edge  \nyou will see the local farmer'smarkets.They bustle with参  \nvendors and hungry shoppershappy to be filling their basketswith food.Go to your localsupermarket,and you will seethe aisles stuffed with frozendinners,fresh fruits and  \nvegetables,cheese,bread,fish,and meat.There's no doubtabout it:This country is full offood.It's everywhere.  \n# The Other Side ofthe Story\n\nAmerica has a seeminglyendless supply of crops,likethese oranges from Florida.  \nIt's no surprise,then,that mostpeople in the United States getplenty to eat—three meals a day,  \nat least.And between meals,they snack to their heart'scontent.They consume what they like,when they like.They may not eat the most nutritious food.They may beprone to eating\"junk.\"But by any measure,they'rewell fed.  \nSome Americans,however,are not well fed.Somepeople in the\"Land of Plenty\"struggle just to put foodon the table.They have no idea where their next meal  \nRestaurant servers and other low-wage workers are particularly vulnerableto food price increases.  \nmight come from,or how they're going to pay for it.Some just can't afford the food they need.In manycases,these people are hungry.  \nWho are these people?Often,they're the homelessthat you see on the streets in large
