If you’re like me, the recent news stories about recalls of food products has you concerned. We take for granted that our food sources are safe.
My family recently made the switch to . With the use of hormones and other chemicals, I felt less sure of what I was buying at the grocery store. The difference was amazing. At first glance, you can see a difference in the meat. The organic meat looks more appetizing. The taste was more flavorful. Since we’ve cut back on the amount of beef we eat, I had no problem with spending more for a quality product when we do have beef on the menu.
Unfortunately, what you find at the grocery stores can be deceptive. Take for instance the labeling with whole wheat. We know now that a product labeled “whole wheat” may contain other ingredients. Likewise, it is with meats labeled organic. The labeling doesn’t necessarily imply hormone-free. As with whole wheat products, look for products labeled 100% organic. Choosing 100% organic gives you the peace of mind of product that meets these high standards.
