I can't keep up with what I am supposed to be buying food wise!!!

[Hulababy]

Should it be:

locally produced/farmed/sourced?
as few air miles as possible?
organic?
free range?
fair trade?
farm assured?
eco friendly?

Is my organic veg box better than buying from the local farm shop - which doesn't say it is organic?

What about my meat - from the local butchers? from a local farm shop? organic form supermarket?

As for fish - only place I can get hold of fish easily is the supermarket anyway. I normally buy organic where I can but not always possible here, and have no fishmonger aroud that I know of. But now I read that I should be buying wild salmon - is this better than organic then? And hasn't my wild salmon been flown several air miles to reach me?

All at once are not possible, so what should come from where!!!
Argh! It is all a nightmare!

Depends on your priorities really.

If you strongly feel people should be buying local and supporting local businesses instead of 'tescopoly', then shop at local farm shops and butchers etc.

If you think organic is best buy organic.

If you're worried about air-miles then buy local seasonal stuff.

If you care more about the depletion of fish supplies than about air miles then buy wild sustainable alaskan salmon etc. (and yes wild is better than organic as organic is farmed and still treated with pesticides etc. Wild is more organic but can't be certified as that!)

Whatever makes you happy. It's not about what is trendy or the thing to do, but about what fits with your own morals or ethos. It shouldn't be a nightmare

It was more the whol thing around which is supposed to be best adnd not really.

TBH I tend to just do what suits me best and I am not particularly obsessed about any of it. I do what I can, where I can and that is it!

Just think it would be impossible to suit everyone all the time.
