Food that Promotes Health and Environmental Protection
Sustainable cuisine is the practice of using products that are grown, harvested, processed, packaged and distributed with the least amount of environmental impact.
In our current global food system it has become difficult to know where our food products originate. With more food-based scares-- E-coli in spinach, tainted seafood from China, mad-cow, etc - many people are more concerned about the safety of our food system. This has driven more interest in local and organic foods.
What are your thoughts? Are you making sustainable foods choices? Are you shopping at different stores? Have you considered vegetarianism?
Flo bakes a quiche - with all local Ingredients. Fighting climate change never tasted so good.

CSAs are great!
I always wanted to try one, and for the first time this summer, I did. It has being a wonderful experience.
The food is very fresh and tasty. It challenges you to try new foods and recipes, and the best part of all, it brings people together.
Just try it ;)

Comment by Kerstin on May 25, 2008 at 3:12pm - My aunt told me she stopped buying organic because it took up too much space in the agribusiness and therefore was not a good idea...any thoughts? I still buy organic when I can and have recently started to purchase only from local produce markets. How can I be sure I am buying eco-friendly?
