Demand better food with your dollars

Consumers can influence how food is produced by refusing to buy the convenience crap and turning to the more natural products. Here is an example of the dairy farmers starting to realize that they need to respond to consumer demand for milk without hormones.

So each week, when you buy your groceries, you either support food that is made with toxic chemicals by choosing those foods or you send a message to food manufacturers that you won't spend your money on their toxic crap. They WILL get the message and they WILL have to change to stay in business if enough people reject what they are selling us.

A lot of people shy away from organic because it costs so much more. I wonder if they consider the cost of their medical bills down the road by NOT choosing organic, healthier food. Contrary to what the FDA and other institutions tell us, the chemicals they add to our food are NOT safe for us and that is especially true for children who tend to consume more convenience foods, EVEN AT SCHOOL which is a CRIME. More and more schools are starting to respond to the demand by parents for healthier food and elimination of junk food vending machines in schools which should NEVER have happened in the first place.
