I had an interesting experience last night as I went to a business seminar last night, while I was there I met a man who had recently been put out a job due to the slow down in the automotive industry. This is something we're seeing more and more however this is not the purpose of this post.
This man had gone into selling bulk food to people, which is not an issue, however the way that he was marketing it was disgraceful to me... used words like
"ALMOST ORGANIC"
I was astonished, how can something be almost organic, if its not then that word should not even be associated with the product, he had very little knowledge of how it was raised and where it came from, using the word "local" but having no idea why or how its local or what they define as local.
Now I know it may seem like Im gripping at my competition, but really it makes me sad that people are out there, direct marketing food that they have zero knowledge about and what do you think it is that started this over consumption issue in North America, an over consumption and under nutrition epidemic!
I would just encourage people to look very closely, do you know exactly the farm it came from, do you know the farmer that will stand behind his work, how does he farm, whats in the meat, the vegitables, whats the health of the soil, basically WHAT is in your FOOD!
