Okay, now you're doing what the OP was joking about, but seriously. Why wouldn't we simply grow local crops that grow well locally, and think of those crops that don't grow well locally as luxury items that need to be imported?

Yeah for real. Also there's levels of local. I grow as much as I can in my yard and maintain a compost. So long as I rotate correctly it's basically forever sustainable (unless something wild happened like the climate changing for some reason). Now there's an argument that it's more efficient to grow at a neighborhood level esp as not everyone can have a yard - and I'm all for it. Tear up half the streets and plant gardens instead, won't hear me complain
