Fast food restaurants are becoming “green.” In other words, there is a trend to produce fast foods in an eco-friendly way. Restaurants are being rated on their “greenness” or how they use water, reduce waste, handle disposables etc. according to an article in the June 2010 issue of Today’s Dietitian magazine. This is fine and I’m all for being kind to our environment, but instead of going to all of this trouble I have an easier solution. Not only is my solution more affordable to implement, but it will result in more quality family time, save you money, improve your health and will be good for the planet.
Just buy and eat real foods at home. Buy real foods, the ones that do not come with a label, cook them simply and dress them lightly. When you cook dinner at home, you'll be “greener” than any restaurant can be. Your dinner will taste better and it will be better for you and for the planet. So not only will you be saving your health, pocketbook and family, but you’ll also be saving the planet. It doesn’t get any better than that.
Cooking is easier than you think and you and your family are worth the time and effort it takes.
