I always wanted to though. I still may because that egg omelet looked DELICIOUS lol i just won't get the parfait : )<br /><br />It sucks because places like Whole Foods have some delicious options but it's just so expensive. I hate paying a lot of money for a salad because I keep thinking ... couldn't i just make this myself? Other dishes ... not so much! it's worth paying for because i'd never pull it off but a salad? come on. Throw some lettuce in a bowl, mix it up haha anyway, its really unfortunate that a lot of organic food is so $$$. I saw a woman who created a garden in her window. It was sort of crazy.<br /><br />Go to windowfarms.org <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZCL3H9XpU4<br /><br />www.the-blisslist.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17175238870945398166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938196861386453475.post-87132540045244422272010-05-28T02:14:40.689+02:002010-05-28T02:14:40.689+02:00I love this post.

You can grow your own fruits and veggies from seeds and keep the chemicals out. It's cost effective (after the initial investment of soil, pots, seeds, etc.) and you'll have less waste because it goes from the garden to your plate. Even in four season climates you can have fresh veggies at least 3 months out of the year.<br /><br />If you can't start a garden, you can at least cook from scratch. It doesn't take much longer and although you don't have to use organic ingredients, you'll be staying away from ridiculous amounts of preservatives and chemicals. I'm all about "real" food.Keeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17793135866902854363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938196861386453475.post-23295726875494599802010-05-27T18:22:46.790+02:002010-05-27T18:22:46.790+02:00I hear you Maddy, I hear you!

And I have yet to see organic produce go on sale.<br />I've heard that the prices are better for organic at the local farmer's market, but I'm also aware that take extra time and energy to find a FM--I'm guilty of not going because I want to get my grocery shopping done in 1 stop. It will continue to be difficult until the system itself changes--which will take lots of time. until then, a lot of ppl are screwed, especially in this economy. :/Nadettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07795506013724696061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938196861386453475.post-1931411302105016772010-05-27T15:34:45.329+02:002010-05-27T15:34:45.329+02:00You make a strong point!

It's bad enough spending tons of $$ on regular produce, to only throw it away in the trash a few days later, but then to add the extra cost of organic is ridiculous! And I'm sure that's a problem across the board in low income homes. Most people can't even afford their mortgages, how are they going to squeeze in money for organic foods? I think it's terrible because over time we'll start to see the effects of our unhealthy eating lifestyles, but what choice do most americans have?? And BTW - I rarely see the organic stuff go on sale, so it's not like people can bulk up when prices are low :o/Maddyhttp://themaddychronicles.comnoreply@blogger.com
