I'm feeling a little concerned about the food industry right now, and I'm wondering if I'm not alone.
As most of you know I am getting my first taste of garden fresh produce from my garden this year. There is no comparison. Carrots taste like chunks of old wood compared to the flavor of a home grown carrot. Salad is fresh and enticing (although the spider I found in my lunch after I let my husband do the rinsing is definitely not a high point.)
Now I just bought some fresh local honey and tried to take a sip of it to compare the flavor...almost got knocked over by the powerful honey flavor. It's extremely sweet and way more "Honey" than the stuff I'm getting in the store.
And so now I don't want to eat store bought food anymore. At all. But there are things that I just can't find locally. (Local cow's milk. I have looked everywhere and just can't find it. Maybe I'd like fresh goat milk better than storebought goats milk? Hmm.)
What do you guys do to minimize the foods you eat that aren't awesome? It's not that I'm against storebought food, its just that it isn't awesome. And why eat something that's dry and flavorless when you can get something tasty?
