We eat a lot of processed foods--primarily because my husband is allergic to fresh fruits and vegetables (yes, seriously all of them) which makes it difficult to eat a square meal. I do think, though, that there are other things that we can do to eat healthier instead of out of so many boxes and cans so maybe a book like this would help. Thanks for the review! I think I actually like the question answer format for a book like this! As readers we all have maybe the same questions...?Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-33957151727510859262008-08-01T23:55:00.000-04:002008-08-01T23:55:00.000-04:00Thanks for answering my question!

I agree with the points that stuck out, those are ones I was being drawn to as well. <BR/><BR/>KimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-42058975465630109132008-08-01T19:49:00.000-04:002008-08-01T19:49:00.000-04:00Er, HFCS not HFSCEr, HFCS not HFSCkellyraehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13796629343350801795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-39006320732240451432008-08-01T19:48:00.000-04:002008-08-01T19:48:00.000-04:00ok I swear I left a comment here earlier but it's ...ok I swear I left a comment here earlier but it's not showing up! Harumph.<BR/><BR/>I wanted to show you <A HREF="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kelly_rae/sets/72157605322661202/" REL="nofollow">our CSA box</A>! It's our 1st summer and I'm loving it. It's a little pricey (works out to $20/week) but I feel good.<BR/><BR/>And also to recommend Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver. I feel like I generally eat pretty well (mostly whole, unprocessed food, and I try to not eat HFSC or artificial sweeteners) but I love books like this to encourage me and reinforce the idea.kellyraehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13796629343350801795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-19660360853330286222008-08-01T14:51:00.000-04:002008-08-01T14:51:00.000-04:00Now I want to read this, but I don't, ya know?

We haven't committed to that, but we love the farmers' market that happens on Sunday morning on Saratoga Street between Holliday and Gay Streets - tons of local and fresh produce.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08339920449924488366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-67612759641981783402008-08-01T09:35:00.000-04:002008-08-01T09:35:00.000-04:00Wow!

It still boggles my mind when people think pizza is healthy because there's "wheat" and "veggies". Hmmm....what???Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13978371169108528359noreply@blogger.com
