LOL @ Scotz... no kidding.

Well, it was an interesting trip to the grocery store. No wonder so many Americans are having issues! Just to eat healthy is expensive! We did find the cereal (twig & non twig variety), fiber one bars, and some hot cereal that would be good to start our day. Whole wheat pasta, heart healthy sauces and breads/pitas & wraps. Beans (I am so glad we all like beans), vanilla soy milk and various nuts, fruits, veggies (that we don't have in the garden),etc. Our daughter kept looking at the cart with a horrified look and quickly grabbed some Doritos, nibs ice cream and some other junk... rofl!

We were looking for barley (which we found), and flax seed, but couldn't find that where we shop. Will have to locate that elsewhere.

All in all, it was pretty interesting to read lables and look at the fiber content to see what we were actually eating without trying to be healthy. Sodium content, fats and preservatives are shocking to see in foods that we would eat regularly.
