Wonderful loaf

You go to the bakery to buy whole wheat bread, or ciabatta, or croissants. Other people go there and get just what they want.

How did this get organized? Did an all-knowing bureaucrat tell farmers last year how much wheat to grow, or tell bakery shop owners what kind of bread to bake?

No. The shelves are full of what you and your neighbors like, at a price you can afford, but no genius is running food supply for your city. Independent business people and farmers make their own business decisions, and consumers are free to make their own buying choices.
