Organic Food’s Fight with My Wallet

Fruits and Veggies2 As I mentioned, one of my goals is to incorporate more fruit and vegetables into my diet.  I have eaten pretty well for a long time, but I have never made the leap to organic foods.  However, now that I have this MS diagnosis, the idea of putting pesticides– something that is designed to exterminate life– into a body that I’m trying to help heal itself seems like a bad idea.  The only issue is that organic foods are soooooo expensive.

So what to do?

We all know that Whole Foods (a.k.a. “Whole Paycheck”) is an option, so I’m glad there is one in my area.  It has been a great source for a lot of tasty gluten-free foods, but if I’m going to be juicing, I need to purchase organic produce in bulk.

I researched growing my own produce, but since I live in an apartment, that’s a challenge.

Finally, I researched options to purchase organic produce in bulk online, and I found a place in my area that allows me to do just that!!! Most major cities have businesses that offer this.  Google: “Organic produce delivery [your city]” and see what you find.

The place near me that delivers is actually cheaper than the grocery store, so I’m psyched.  Now my wallet and organic food can live together in harmony.

Organic juicing, here I come!!!

Do you eat organic foods? Are you able to do it cost-effectively?
