Who doesn't like a home cooked meal in a slow cooker? Whether it's a stew, a chili or a brisket the longer you let it sit, the better it is. Think of this next time you're at the grocery store. Those organic products you see have been soaking on the slow cycle in a great marinade - the good wholesome Earth! Because they have had time to absorb that carbon-rich soil, they have had time to develop thicker cell walls which gives them a more concentrated flavor. Studies show that organic products are loaded with more antioxidants and vitamins than chemically grown products.
That's not enough for you? Ok, well organic goods are biodegradable and come straight from the ground - let's get rid of all those middle men! When you buy organic, you are limiting the food's travel from production to your kitchen. Not only that, but consider protecting yourself, and your family, from those nasty chemicals and pollutants that are used to grow so many consumer products these days. Keep in mind too - children are said to be more vulnerable to the effects of pesticide residue than adults...
Check your labels too... I am that chick that stands in the aisle reading every ingredient. If I don't know what something is, I don't put in my cart. This is very important because so many food companies try and trick us consumers with how they market their products. If something says that it's made with organic ingredients, you can be sure that maybe 70 percent is actually organic.
Geez, this is becoming a lot of work, huh. Just know, it's in your best interest to buy the most true and pure produce with 100 percent organic ingredients. Even though times are tough and a few dollars here and there add up, just be aware of what you're putting in your body. You are what you eat!
