Having been in US for a while and having coming back now I can definitely confirm that quality of fresh produce in US very bad compared to India, If you have only grown up on a meat based and processed foods diet you may not be able to relate. We generally consume a lot of fresh produce as compared to the western world, don't always believe in biased articles.

I think Clojure syntax is more intuitive than CL , at least to someone who has not spend a lot of time in CL One e.g. I can see for "destructuring"

(let [ [a b c] [1 2 3]] (+ a b c))

as opposed to

(multiple-value-bind (a b c) (values 2 3 5) (+ a b c))

Also datastructres maps, sets sequence abstraction in Clojure seem more Organic...in CL its feels like bolted on

Picat Language which is designed to be more main stream than Prolog supports CP out of the box , also has a planning module

I think I would be better to compare CL with Clojure rather than Racket...since Clojure has found some usage outside academia
