The food miles mistake

An article summarized the importance of a holistic systematic approach in making your food choice. Local food is not always better, and organics are not always better either.

Recommendations: "Eat foods that are in season; eat minimally processed, packaged, and marketed food; use public transportation when grocery shopping; can and dry fruits and vegetables yourself; and plant a garden and grow as much of your own food as possible. In other words, spend more time and effort finding, growing, and preparing food at the expense of other productive or leisure activities."

My favorite sentence: "give your true love a bouquet of in-season root vegetables for Valentine's Day."

I wonder what my husband's face will look like when he gets a bunch of home-grown beets for Valentine's Day.

P.S. He hates beets.
