Shape magazine ran an interesting piece in their most recent issue, taking a look at how to shop for organic foods without breaking the bank. Buying green without spending too much of it, I suppose you could say. The article itself was based on the new book The Organic Food Shopper's Guide, written by Jeff Cox. Here is one of the tips mentioned in both the book and the article. It is certainly worth considering the next time you're in the grocery store and want to go Green.
Don't shun packaged goods
It's easy to assume that because a particular food is processed, it's not worth shelling out the dough for it. Not so, says Jeff Cox, who points out that boxed and bagged organic items like crackers and breakfast cereals are made without artificial preservatives, dyes, extenders, etc. Whereas other foods may contain many of these unhealthy additives to ensure "freshness," many boxed of packaged goods do not.
