[quote:drinking buddy:MV80NTk5MDY4XzgzNzM3Mzc1Xzk3NUQxRTY3] [quote:Paradox927:MV80NTk5MDY4X0ZGQjk5N0FE] ... tasteless or filled with chemicals? Seriously! Having traveled outside of the US, I can honestly say that the food here is lacking not only in nutrition but taste---especially when you compare it to other places around the world. Don't get me wrong: I'm a good cook and can make even the worst meal edible, but damn, son, I can't help but think the FDA is just trying to kill us with all their "approved" poison. :broccoli: :fight: [/quote] Agree that most of it is crap, but if you are lucky enough to live where there is a local 'foodshed' you can eat real food. Localharvest.org has a feature where you can put in your zipcode and find local food close to you. I think there are versions in other countries as well. A lot of people here use CSA's (community supported agriculture) where you buy a subscription and get a weekly allotment..for veggies, fruits, milk and cheese, breads, meats, pickles, etc. I can't stand to eat in restaurants anymore because it really is all the same thing from the same supplier - and way overpriced. It's also opening day for hunting a lot of places if you like venison. [/quote]
