Supermarket Routine

There are times when I go food shopping and just get the basics for my family and try to get in and out as fast as I can (usually when I have the kids with me)!! Other times I like to take my time, planning new meals and picking up treats.

So, what are some of your staple items when shopping for groceries? Is
there something that you 'have' to get for your partner/kids? What do
you think about organic products? Let me know your regime.

Have to have - rolled oats, dandelion tea, coconut oil, coconut cream, avocados, fresh meat for the neighbour's cat......for starters.
I think organic products are basically good........some are overpriced........and the only difference between organic and non organic is the pesticide use......nutrients in both are no different ( these days, most foods are very poor in nutrients anyway).
We purchase very little processed food.....and very few take out meals.....keeping our meals basic, yet tasty, is very cost effective. What we save there, we can spend on quality supplements and other non carcinogenic products.
