RE: 🍝If You're Not Licking Your Plate, You're Not Doing Pasta Right! 🍝(Vegan+Gluten Free)

Ah yes I completely agree about organic food, when you look at the horrific list of things that are put into non organic food, it really is no wonder that people are becoming ill, in your country does organic food cost much more? It does here, it is insanely overpriced, it always seems to be the capitalism creates a worse alternative so it can then make a bigger profit from the good things then costing more. :-/

Sort:  

Oh I completely agree! Well, I am from Canada and lived in the USA for years and I know in both of those places the severity of the costs associated with organic food...

In Bali, where I live now, because the cost of living is much lower, it's much more affordable but there is still the incredible difference in conventional vs organic which is truly frustrating.

I know that there are ways being surfaced now to try to correct that problem so people can have a right to healthy, non toxic food. I can't wait for that day to come! <3

That is good that the cost is lower where you are, I think there are certain areas where corporations should not be allowed to control to make vast profits, food and healthcare are two of those things, the fact that it can make money from either denying people healthy food or denying them healthcare when they then get ill because of it seems to be very wrong.

It should be a human right, don't you think? :-)

Haha my friend, you have no idea how much I think that! I try not to get too political on here but much of my life is devoted to this exact problem. On here, I try to inspire change through recipes and gently nutritional coaching but in my quote on quote real life I actually have a NPO in the states whose mission is in short redefining our food source so, I am 100% on board with you. Changes are coming. Healthy food is a right, not a privilege. <3

Thats really cool that you do that, so what sort of recipes and coaching do you do in respects to nutrition? I have had a lot of health issues because of bad diet and I am just trying to recover now, the damage that bad food can do to the human body is really terrible, I think people do not realise the dangers of junk food. Even the fact that its called JUNK FOOD, I mean thats not a good sign is it? :-/

What does your organisation do? Sounds good :-)
