And then at the market - even Whole Foods - it's not only featured, its put on sale. What was cheap already is now ridiculous. Why wouldn't an unsuspecting consumer buy and eat it?
You know what gets me? I KNOW all this stuff - have studied it for years, and yet, I still struggle with it sometimes. What about the millions of people who don't KNOW it? How hard is it to find a solution for them?
So, what IS the solution? I don't know if I have an answer - other than personal responsibility and baby steps. Our food manufacturers certainly aren't going to do it for us - they are doing exactly the opposite, because bad food is cheap to produce and turns the biggest profit. And temptations, ads, samples, sales, and events with food that doesn't support our health will ALWAYS be there. So it looks like making choices against the flow, in the face of cultural and societal norms, satisfying our own personal needs and knowing the reward and how much better we will feel because of our choices is the only way. If we take care of ourselves and our family and try to pass on the knowledge one person at a time, it will eventually add up to what is a healthy society once again.
Waking up is hard. Waking up and taking consistent action is even harder. I'm up for the challenge, the journey. Will you take it with me?
