[quote=Anonymous]Eat less meat. I can't afford the meat I would feel good about eating and feeding my family, so we just eat a lot less of it (1-2 meals a week where meat is a major ingredient). I feel bad that we can't really afford the organic produce I'd like to get, so I only buy organic for select, more affordable fruits and veggies, mostly avoid the rest of the dirty dozen, and don't worry about the rest. We're planning on putting in a big garden, but not until next year. Costco has good deals on many organic products, particularly if you buy frozen. It is what it is. I can feel guilty about not buying the healthiest, most environmentally-friendly food and I can feel guilty about not saving every penny I can for our kids limited college savings accounts. I do feel a bit guilty about both, but that guilt really serves no good and there are worse problems to have, so I try not to dwell. [/quote]
