It wasn’t too long ago that I read about someone finding a snake head in a can of string beans…yikes!
My boyfriend works in a supermarket and a friend works for Whole Foods: they both might be interested in watching this.

Yikes, Joanne! Let us know what they think. Went to a Slow Food festival today, with the family which my sister was working at, and it was terrific. Will post about it, there is so much to learn.

The whole head of a rooster in the can?? Gross! This is really incredibly comprehensive and informative. I must say that I have gone almost totally fresh and local. I like to prepare my own food and would not think of buying very much in packages. However, some canned goods are invaluable. Canned tomatos for example make life easier.

Yikes again! Isn’t the info good? What you are doing is exactly right. I have canned food for some things too. A proportion of them is easy for when you don’t want to or can’t dash to the shops or market. One idea I really liked was the subscription farm, how brilliant? The organic store, Box My Bunch near here delivers organic selections by the box regularly, even handy for when you can’t get there. I haven’t used the service yet, but I usually wallk down there. A little of everything good is the best thing. And of course, chocolate as to stay on the list. How could we do without chocolate?
