31. Live that some producers are catching on..

In context, Chipolte is trying to go all organic or natural with their stores and until they are able to, label what is GMO etc.

Yesterday, I bought bread that specifically said No HFCS and it was at an Aldi's. a couple of yrs ago milk with growth hormones was a big deal and milk started getting labelled with stickers. Fruit Juices are having no preservatives added, ketchup is coming without HfCS (a staple in a young child's diet). People are buying foods that aren't exactly cheap, they want them produced with quality and care.

It's amazing how many people my age are "awake" about foods and nutrition and its obvious who is not or who is poor and nutrient deprived of the good stuff or doesn't care and just eats crap anyway.

Maybe it's just the people I connect to or the types of people I live around and are in my son's circle, but people want time quality, nutritious foods, and enough money to have a decent life (not scrape by pay check to pay check)... It's not about so much stuff... And we will never get out of a recession type of mold until we change the structure of what is valuable? How long we should toil? And how does our actions benefit out community and our world.
