dancerjodiDevina read this http://www.amazon.com/Real-Food-What-Eat-Why/dp/1596911441 a long time ago and suggested it to her LJ friends, and after poking at reviews I added it to my Amazon wish list (which I then consulted when spending some Barnes and Noble gift cards).
I'm through the intro and the dairy section and am on to meat and I'm really enjoying it. I think the author is good at mixing humor and experience with research and is making a convincing argument for focusing on eating real foods. The question though is how to balance that with costs and convenience.
We've talked with some friends that do the raw milk thing and I have some friends doing the organic/free range/grass fed meat thing. I've done the veggie CSA thing a couple of times in different ways and we've hit the local farmer's market though not as much as I'd like to. Does anyone in the Boston area have a service, farm, store or wherever that you absolutely love and want to suggest? Any tips on this kind of transition? There are only two of us so moving to a milk or meat or eggs or veggie share means that we will have to do more home cooking and less eating at restaurants (not wanting things to spoil and making the most of $ spent on food). In concept these are great ideas, but there are always those days/weeks/months that you just don't feel like dealing with it, you know?
