It makes buying organic worthwhile!<br /><br />Sweets are so tempting, but at least if most of your food is healthy, your body can recover from the sweets. That's how I justify myself anyway. :)JoKnowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282621916141807042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132521194361824092.post-61173069379121950872013-04-23T09:00:50.074-04:002013-04-23T09:00:50.074-04:00Thanks for the recommendations.

Back in the fall I became more educated about the harmful GMOs found in a lot of processed food, it scared me, so Ive been buying organic (packaged foods) for several months now instead. Although I do still indulge from time to time in sweets that are pretty far from being organic...Im trying though! That movie looks awesome, I'll check it out!

I've only seen some of Forks Over Knives but don't have my copy anymore.<br /><br />Two other great talks to watch are the TED talk titled "why animals should be off the menu" and Gary Yourofsky 'best speech you will ever hear' (the latter goes for 70 minutes, his style may not be for everyone but stick with it).<br /><br />The China Study is pretty much what turned me vegan!Veganopouloushttp://veganopoulous.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132521194361824092.post-75696636489714404622013-04-22T21:42:17.161-04:002013-04-22T21:42:17.161-04:00I often hear information (like about tainted meat,...I often hear information (like about tainted meat, etc.) that makes me extra happy to be a vegetarian. :)<br /><br />I know cheese is the hardest. My husband and kids still eat it, but I'm thinking about cutting back on their consumption too, based on this movie.

I'm a vegetarian simply because I don't like to eat meat (texture, taste, thinking about the poor cow...) but hearing information like this makes me feel pretty good about that choice. Just don't make me give up cheese, Jo.
