For me, the key is researching brands and their ownership.

While no firm is perfect, a little bit of homework pays off. I won't buy store brand or agribusiness flour. Bob's Red Mill is great at this time.

One day they may add ze bugz to stretch out their offering.

Word will get around. Then I'll move on.

To a large extent, back in the day people didn't need to research their food because...well...it wasn't messing us up badly. Then junk like soy and polysyllabic chemicals became major ingredients.

Next thing you know it, autism and ADHD are rampant and gluten and nuts became poisons.

The medical industrial complex pushed drugs on kids. Many parents (in many cases who weren't red-pilled but love their kids) took the bait. A few of us free-thinkers changed our diets at great financial cost, and were laughed at or ridiculed by friends and family (we were homeschooling anyway so they though we were freaks already).

It (largely) worked for us red-pilled folks, but the wreckage on the other side of the fence in terms of children on Ritalin is criminal.

Shortly after mr. mm and I got married, we decided that if we could not pronounce the ingredients, we weren’t eating it.

There’s a slight extra expense for using real butter and real maple syrup, for example, but our reasoning is that this stuff was real food and our bodies knew what to do with it.

My children all check ingredients when making certain purchases. If any food contains HFCS, it goes back on the shelves. That stuff is vile and is found in way too many products. Eating food as close to natural as possible, the way God made it, is the best for your body.

Also, women should avoid getting their nails, hair, etc. done when pregnant. Those chemicals pass through the body to the baby. Go with all natural shampoo, body wash, and lotion for the children. Far too many products contain endocrine blockers. Over time, it can mess up the endocrine system which drives sexual development.
