RE: We Are Hostages to the Food Industry and There Is No Way Out

in #life8 years ago

Today when I eat these products to have the taste of my childhood I always get frustrated because today they don't taste the same.

Oh yes definitely! Countless stuff I used to eat and enjoy when I was a kid, don't taste the same anymore.

Regarding the rest of the article, I think it's pretty feasible to eat healthily - or relatively healthily - without even having to buy organic. You just need to learn how to cook.

About organics and their cost, I think when you buy fruits and vegetables, buying organic won't do much, and the chemicals aren't as dangerous as some claim I think. I think if you want to buy organic, it's best to spend your money on organic meat, so as to avoid the antibiotics they feed them with. Also consuming meat products like cheeses and yogurt is a good idea. Cheeses and yogurts that are made traditionally are healthy. I basically try to follow Michael Pollan's rules when I'm buying at the supermarket. On my page I have 2 recipes up by now (and planning to add more), that are healthy and cheap, and one of them (and more that are to come) will feed you for days.
