Supermarket Routine

Bazz

I rarely go supermarket shopping, preferring to support local organic small businesses against the supermarket giants. Like you, I like to get in & out of supermarkets as fast as I can - they are certainly not pleasant places to spend time in! The smell is always terrible for one thing, in contrast to even stores like Big W & Kmart where you just want to spend time looking around in.

I think, although it's expensive, certified organic fresh produce is the way to go for a great number of reasons, many of which can be found on the websites. Most people who buy organic, surveys show, do so based purely on the taste of the food! However, in the supermarkets, all fresh produce is routinely gassed, making the produce "not organic" once they hit the supermarket shelves. It's easy to learn of all the dark practices of the big supermarkets after speaking to certified organic farmers who have been at it for generations. They know in great detail just how supermarkets love to screw their suppliers for big profits.
