We're a 100-percent-organic house. My daughter is a vegetarian and practically vegan. That's her choice. That's how she eats. We're really conscious about what we buy.
For families, for parents that don't want to feed their kids GMOs, in the private marketplace there has grown up an abundant market.
Almonds, carrots, quinoa, soy products, vegetable oil, corn and corn oil, canola seeds used in canola oil, beets and beet sugar, sweet potatoes - these are just some of the foodstuffs which typically contain high levels of glyphosate.
Adopting big-business practices is one thing, and adopting agribusiness practices that would dilute the meaning of 'organic' is another. On the whole, I think we're doing a pretty good job of preserving the integrity of organic foods.
'Organic' doesn't mean what people think it means.
I focus on organic foods and I also don't eat any wheat or gluten.
What we get at home is 100% organic food. We are also 90% vegetarian.
I believe in natural food.
I can safely say that other than macaroni and cheese, there's no processed food in my life. There's no inorganic food in my life these days. There's no junk food. There's not a lot of sugar. There's no soy. I mean, really everything that's going into my body is pretty pure.
There's nothing better than home-grown, chemical-free fruits and vegetables.
For me, food is all about balance. If you eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and an appropriate amount of poultry, fish, and red meat that are sourced from good places, you're doing well. It's important to make sure that the meat you're consuming is hormone-free.
I really focus on natural products, so I love using unrefined products instead of refined ones. I swap white rice for brown rice or quinoa. I use brown rice pasta instead of regular pasta, nut milk or oat milk instead of dairy milk, and coconut yogurt instead of cows' yoghurt, etc.
Daddy was like a lot of people who kind of turn their noses up when you say the word 'organic.'
