This is scary, and whenever someone complains by the table that they don't like the food, I make them thing about the people who do not have any food. You know Will, I grew up on the organic food, which then wasn't even called organic food, it was what we had. And now I have to pay extra for something we age, as some called farmers food.

Back here even fresh vegetables and meat are tainted with chemicals to keep them fresh. Sometimes you just don't know what to buy anymore. .-= Liza´s last blog ..<a href="http://yummyascanbe.info/?p=1649">The Wedding Cake Test</a> =-.

But often shoppers really don't know how the food they buy is produced. If everyone knew what happens on the typical feedlot, 90% would not want to buy feedlot meat. But almost nobody knows anything about meat production. As Michael Pollan said in his oversimplified little book of food rules. If it comes from a plant eat it. If it is made in a plant, don't.

More often than not I choose to eat organic foods and when possible, mostly seasonal, I eat locally produced foodstuff. Can't say as I'll ever cut out meat consumption as suggested by Sukhmandir Kaur, but I do prefer natural raised, organic and kosher meats. It is agreed that if we all do just a little bit the outcome would be less grim for the future. I am certainly pro ethical eating.

It takes twenty times the resources to feed animals used for food pound for pound then to use the same resources directly for human consumption. So we can still feed people if they cut out eating meat. Cattle production also contributes to green house gasses and promotes climate change. Even cutting out 10% of meat consumption can make a difference. If you’ve seen The Future of Food, ( free at hulu) then you know how important it is to buy locally and avoid corporate produced food.
