[quote=Anonymous]Aldi's grosses me out. I'm not willing to skimp on the quality of food I give my family. Buying some things organic or local really do matter to me. I follow the EWGs dirty dozen and clean 15 (http://www.pbs.org/wnet/need-to-know/health/the-dirty-dozen-and-clean-15-of-produce/616/) I agree with the PP who recommended frozen veggies for some recipes. I've made friends with a couple of the farmers at our local farmers market and have bought boxes of their produce when it's available (last week I bought a huge bag of tomatoes for $7!). I keep some in the garage (potatoes, cabbage, carrots, etc) and I make sauces or whatever and freeze them for use later. It's cheaper to buy in bulk and the food is great. In my opinion, I'd rather spend more money on quality food that I feel good about than on clothes or whatever. I mostly buy clothes at the thrift store or things like furniture off of craigslist for this reason... it's all about choices.[/quote]
