How many really know what the meaning of Organic is? As a consumer, we need to do our homework and learn just exactly what we are feeding ourselves as well as our families. The USDA and the FDA has very loose rules for the Food Processors and Growers. There are pesticides that are dangerous. However "ORGANIC" isn't always what we think it is. So before you go and buy that over priced bag of carrots get to know what the real meaning is.
Hormone Free, Free Range and All Natural are other labels to beware of.
Clean Eating can seem so overwhelming at first. It does not have to be. You can take small steps and still get there. Some extremists will clear out their cabinets and buy all new food and spices. Well that is not practical. I just began to incorporate new items when it was time to replace old ones. Now I did throw out items I just refused to eat no matter what. There were only a few of those. I started buying more fresh veggies and fruit. I started cooking more. Learned to cook quick meals. Played with spices. It is all about experiments!! Our taste-buds have been programed to certain foods. Wake yours up!! Try new things, introduce yourself to new flavor combinations. It is a whole new world. If it is going to be a lifestyle it has to be good!!!
