Please do yourself a favor and watch Food, Inc.as soon as you can. Saw it the other night, and it really confirmed that I’m on the right path. Unbelievable… It pulls back the curtain on the food industry, and what is revealed is very scary. Be a responsible consumer, and find out where your food is coming from before you put it in your mouth. Although this was filmed in the U.S., and Sweden might have stricter standards, there is always room for improvement…

Want to take action? Here are 8 simple things you can do to change the food system…

  1. Stop drinking soda and other sweetened beverages.
  2. Eat at home, instead of eating out.
  3. Bring foo labeling into the 21st Century.
  4. Tell schools to stop selling junk food.
  5. Meatless Mondays! Go without meat one day a week.
  6. Buy organic or sustainable food with little or no pesticides.
  7. Protect family farms; visit your local farmer’s market.
  8. Make a point to know where your food comes from – Read labels!
