Do you know what you're eating?

Well, it's been quite a while since I've posted on this blog and some of you may think I've fallen off the face of the Earth.  However, that is not the case, and I look forward to getting back into the game and sharing more of my family's journey to nourishment.  Here are just a few more thoughts on the whole genetic modification issue, but I'd like future posts to be geared specifically toward my family and the lessons we're learning as we travel this road of food freedom and knowledge.  

Yesterday, I posted some information about things to keep in mind when you're grocery shopping.  GMO - might be something you've heard before, maybe not.  Genetic Modification is pretty self-explanatory:  the changes made to an organism at the genetic level.  Simply put:  re-wiring plants and animals to grow and develop the way certain folks think they should rather than the way nature intended; changing them at the cellular level so that every part of their being is un-natural (for lack of better terms), and "man-made."  Of course we could take off here into a philosophical debate, but we'll save that for another time.  



If you haven't ever looked at the labels on your food or thought two thoughts about what you're feeding your family, please start now!  Stop relying on someone else to tell you what's good or bad for your body.  Do your own research and make educated decisions about your food.
