This doesn't make sense to me unless our locales differ greatly in labelling practices. Virtually everything but fresh produce comes with a date. Even independent butcher shops close the wrapping paper with a date sticker.
- spodek 7y agoI challenged myself to avoid packaged food for a week. It went so well that I continued, in the process learning to cook from scratch. I was surprised to learn that it took less time, cost less, tasted better, and led me to see packaged food as unnecessary. I wrote a bunch of posts on it since I felt my ignorance and inexperience kept me from a better life and wanted to make the experience available to others http://joshuaspodek.com/avoiding-food-packaging-2 http://joshuaspodek.com/avoiding-food-packaging-2
