    When I am done eating the best parts of the Christmas meal, I will take the scraps out back and offer the remains to the wild foxes, cats, dogs, etc. Nothing is ruined. They like home cookin' too!

    The grocery stores.  

    The produce sucks.  Period.  Try finding good organic produce that is actually superior to the other brands.  Can't do it.



    Want to know what really opened up my eyes to how food companies exploit us? I spent years investigating the differences between European and American food products, and what I found disgusted me.

    A college buddy of mine decided to go live in London for a few years. While she was there, I often had her go to Tesco and other European grocery stores to take pictures of the ingredient lists for me and send me boxes of products. I’d compare them with the same brand of American products side-by-side and saw completely different ingredient lists.

    Companies like Kraft-Heinz, Kellogg’s, PepsiCo, and Quaker sell safer, better products oversees while making inferior versions to sell to Americans. The evidence of this runs the gamut from fast food places to boxed cake mix to cereal to candy and even oatmeal— you can’t escape it. This is what set me down the path of advocating for change in the food system and I’ve never looked back.

      Are you familiar with the Nestlé company's scandal back in the 1970s wherein they sold inferior baby food products and breastmilk substitute products in underdeveloped countries targeting impoverished populations? Its sales of those same products in affluent countries were only of higher quality versions, and there were claims of serious health problems and even deaths among children of poor people while Nestlé raked in copious profits.

    You order from Domino's, you should know already.  Shock is not an option any more.
