I want to add that I do shop some local produce stands and shop at least 3 stores per week to get everything I need and the best prices. I do not buy meat at Walmart because I don't like the quality. The meats I buy are fresh packed meats, not cryopacked like Walmart and in stores that have a true meat department, not just stockers in that area. Other than local farmers that set up stands on Main St. on Saturday mornings, the nearest farmer's market is about an hour away from me so I don't frequent it. This year we have a decent garden so I'm dehydrating, freezing, and canning some produce. We just make do with what we can get and try to find the healthiest choices available without paying an arm and leg. |
