Hungry for Change

I'd like to recommend a documentary I just watched last week. "Hungry for Change" it is on Netflix now. I'm definitely taking much of it into consideration when I am buying food. I've always cooked from scratch but when buying meat and produce I'm reading labels much more carefully!

  • Watching it now... It's really reinforcing a lot of things I already thought about nutrition and the weight loss industry haha

    We threw out all of our gum because aspartame is probably to blame for my girlfriend's migraines.... migraine free since the switch and counting. I will spend the extra money for better quality "organic" food haha. And the calorie/nutrition ratio is ridiculous in the US. Such a good doc.
  • Ooh it's Jamie Oliver's TED talk! I remember the first time I watched it. I also don't remember the last time I chewed gum, actually. Crazy! Yeah honestly I just want to get to the point where I have enough money to splurge on quality food. I don't need a big house or fancy clothes or anything, just good food.

    I'm watching it now! It's so eye-opening! I'll never cut things completely out of my diet, but this really encourages me to make clean choices daily!
