My thoughts on our food supply, why I choose organic, and why we eat only real foods

We all know that one lie, one falsehood, leads to another...& another...& another, until 

the end product has so little of the truth in it that what is left is barely recognizable. This 

is what has occurred with our food supply, with the backing and blessing of the FDA and 

USDA. One modification, one addition, one mistake, one "correction", has led to 

another...& another...& another, until the end product has so little real food in it, and 

what is there is barely recognizable as food. 



I know that some can't understand why, or how, I pay the premium prices for organics and 

the natural products that I buy. First, it is a gradual process; we have slowly started adding 

in more organic products as they are available to us. Baby steps, remember? One new 

baby step a week. :)


Secondly, and most importantly, consider what we are having to pay a premium 

for...food, as God intended, pure, real, food. It is sad that a premium has to be paid to 

have food that hasn't been tampered with...food that isn't a lie. 

Lastly, I don't consider these products/produce to truly be priced at a premium. I consider 

small amounts at ridiculously high prices to be "premium" & frivolous. I don't look at the 

amount in terms of volume or weight, but in nutrient density. So, to my thinking it is the 

snack cakes, Doritos, and other empty, processed foods that are priced at a premium. $4 

for a bag of lies seems pretty steep to me. Compare that to $5 for a bag of nutrient rich, 

real, pure organic apples. There's just no comparison. :)
