Organic Now Readily Available!!


HUGE NEWSFLASH!!!! In an effort to become more responsible in my diet (and other areas of my life), I went to Superstore last week because of a rumour that they gained an incredible ORGANIC SECTION!!!! I often struggle to afford the high prices of organic markets, as organic foods have become a great "specialty" item that one must search for to pay large sums of money to purchase. Lately though... there has been a shift...

A GREAT SHIFT!! Awareness of the harmful practices that non-organic food companies do to process their food for consumers has been hightened, and to no avail, several companies have taken this responsibility into their own hands, and have made an effort to create products that are organically and responsibly processed before they are made available to consumers. There has been a great outpour of organic foods snuck in between other foods in regular superstores, allowing consumers to make better decisions when shopping!

As I entered into the organic food section of Superstore, I almost screamed and shouted out loud because of my excitement! What an incredible movement! For those of you who are not familiar with Superstore, it is a massive grocery store that even has it's own fashion clothing line (Joe, an extension of the Club Monaco company). This store is known for it's very low prices compared to other grocers, and for its selection of food from a variety of nations. Now.... it can also be known for its incredible organic section! I know that stores such as Safeway and Co-op also have organic sections, but the foods in those sections are usually overpriced and not affordable to the average consumer. Superstore has actually made something available to the averae consumer that nobody has before. No longer do we have to shop at specialty stores for organic products for ourselves and our children, because we can make better choices in the comfort of our own regular grocery stores! And if we continue supporting this cause... it may facilitate a great shift in our society... organic may become the norm... let's support this movement!

Moving toward an organic lifestyle,
