X Imagine how food culture has been changed

Tim says:

The grammar of this sentence is not wrong, but why is it passive (受け身)? It doesn’t feel natural. We would use “has been changed” if we wanted to talk about who or what changed it (“our food culture has been changed by technology”), but otherwise, we’ll just say “changed”:

O Think about how food culture has changed

Also, “imagine” is a little strange here, because the changes are real, not imaginary. “Think about” sounds better.
