How bad must it smell in one of these red chili drying fields? Why can't they just use industrial machinery to achieve the same thing? Is laying shit out in the dirt the best we can do in 2016?
What am I looking at here?
It's dirt cheap, isn't it

Who cares about the smell? Stop trying to find flaws in things that work fine enough

Gotcha. I need to sleep then because after staring for a while I thought the white rectangles were xanax bars.
As for your oddly specific topic, Ive never visited a chile farm so I have no idea what the smell would be like but I'm sure they dry them that way because it's the "traditional, old, proper" way, that they've been doing since their people were harvesting chiles.

Precisely. Shit that works fine, industrialization generally fucks up, or at least reduces the quality.
And then achieves what they have accomplished in USica: Convince everyone we're incapable of producing and processing our own food. Sickening.
