I wish the cost of "cleaner" food would come down. It's hard to buy organic and unprocessed food because of the high prices.

I looked up "vegan" and "vegetarian" diets on Google just to see the differences and what is allowed. Made my head spin trying to decipher what's considered OK and what's not. My cognitive deficit definitely has slowed down my ability to understand things.

I get to the store and start reading labels and quickly become exhausted and overwhelmed. I only have about an hour (tops) until I start to fold and need to get back home. I guess I could look up what I need to know online before going but, inevatively, I find things I'm curious about and start reading.

If I could go to the store daily.....or even every other day.....it would be so much easier to buy fresh and eat fresh. But I can't do that so I end up purchasing more processed things than I want to.

I depend on Schwans to keep it clean. I sure hope they do?

Ask them, Sally. They should be able to tell you what they allow and what they don't.

I like the fact they list all ingredients of each item on their website. But if they use things like "pink slime" I'd want to know and seriously doubt they would list it....especially using something as descriptive as that.

I think people have probably ingested it without knowing it and it's just the term "slime" that grosses people out.

I'm afraid to ask...

I take FOREVER in the grocery store because I read EVERY label. I used to have my favorites, and could count on certain products, but have found many of my old favs have changed! now I must read EVERY label from start to end to see what else they added. I am overwhelmed and over stimulated by the time I am done.

LOVE schwans! you can go to their website and read every product. I was upset to see some ingredients, but pleased to se other products in the livesmart area are great!

I just want FOOD! not chemical soup. FOOD!

"Pink Slime" is not an Ingredient; it is Beef Byproduct, Beef, which is listed as Beef. It won't hurt you, tastes the same as Beef, and just saves some of the Cost. It is just the 'latest' thing people are all stirred up about.
