The video above shares grocery shopping tips in some of our favorite areas.
When you first enter a grocery store’s produce area, try to get a little familiar with the flow. Some stores have a section specifically for organic produce; others have the produce mixed within conventional produce.
When heading to the meat department it is still important to read labels or talk to an employee. Many stores today offer organic chicken and grass-fed beef. Some stores even offer local options. It is important to know if your meats have added hormones, antibiotics and understand how the animal was raised, if possible.
Spices are used to add some great flavors to our food. Make your own mixes and avoid unwanted ingredients.
Did you know when reading a label the ingredients are listed in order of volume? This is good guide when trying to understand how much of something might be included in a product.
Some of the best store bought breads are located in the freezer aisle. You can get sprouted and ancient grains and also some gluten free options.
If the fresh vegetables you are looking for aren’t in season, check out the freezer section. Most stores offer a great variety. Stock up your freezer and you can enjoy any time.
