The philosophers weigh in
You are chasing a meal someone once made for you, and you know you will never quite find it. Good. The chase keeps you tender. Just don't let the marketplace sell you your own memories.
Nostalgia, remastered: you repurchase your childhood at a premium, in better packaging. Memory is your asset class and the reissue economy knows your number.
