I'm glad there is more awareness nowadays of just what exactly is in the things we eat. I'm all about organic and local as much as I can. I'd rather buy less and pay more for good products. Hey, that's a good way to lose weight!! :D
Thanks for the great post. Diet soda is BADDDDDDDDDDD
Yep! And I read labels now and if I can help it I don't buy anything that says "high-fructose corn syrup". When I was younger and didn't care what I eat I used to hear "live to eat, not eat to live" and now I know why!
