LONDON (Reuters) - Urban Britons have never been more disconnected from their rural roots, with most people having lost touch with where their food comes from, a survey published shows.

The study, which comes at the start of a new campaign to reconnect people with the countryside, showed that nearly 90 percent of people do not know that beer is made from barley, one fifth did not know that yoghurt comes from milk, while more than one in 10 people think that rice is grown in the UK.

That is sad. Reminds me of the Tonight show with Jay Leno when he asks people on the street what certain things are. Not pretty half the time. I honestly think sometimes, they have to pay the people to be that damn stupid
