I knew I was subscribed to your blog for a good reason! I have been trying to find some facts about food additives. We've been avoiding hydrogenated things for a while and am now cracking down on high fructose. I'm all about making things from scratch anyways...but my hubby LOVES those trash cereals..w/ al the ??? in it. So anyways, I'm going to have to come back here daily to learn a bit more.

Food additives are one thing we're trying to cut out. It's somewhat easy when all you eat is meat, veggies, and fruit! :) We're moving toward the organic meat camp, but haven't arrived yet.

As I finish something, I'm either not replacing it, or replacing it with something else. If I go slowly, I'll have much more chances of success. Food additives are one thing that is particularly scary because 1)you don't know what they really are 2)they might act like something else once it's heated or processed by your body 3)they might actually turn into something else. I'm really starting to think the way to go is simply making everything from scratch (as much as is actually feasible, that is).sa4gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10965479230884679825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919085430036876974.post-32786017388021434832010-04-27T13:10:36.682-05:002010-04-27T13:10:36.682-05:00This is a great post!

It seems like this is something I go in spurts with, I'll be really aware of it for a while, then go back to old habits.<br /><br />I'm with you on the root beer!

After two babies with medical issues, (not together) I was tired, stressed, and lethargic...I totally didn't want to cook...anything. But realizing that gluten is in so many packaged foods, and eating out usually has enough cross-contamination to give me a tummy-ache, I knew I needed to get back into the kitchen.<br />I tried the packaged gluten-free stuff, but that upsets my stomach too, so I stick to the less processed stuff now. Meats, veggies, fruits, dairy...the less processed the better...for my tummy, and for me.<br />I am still trying to gather the support of the family. The kids don't want to change their eating habits, and our relatives near-by have no idea what it means to be GF. I hope that a summer filled with visits to farms, the farmers markets, and afternoon kiddie kitchen cooking dates will help the kiddos understand what it means to explore "real" food. My husband...well, he will need a bit more work I suspect.<br />For now, I am trying to limit additives by planning ahead and cooking from scratch. <br />I really like this post and your Carnival post!

Seriously though, it's the easiest thing in the world and I get mine so fizzy I never miss pop. :-) It's awesome!
