>>2715229Different anon, but here's another food tip:
Usually in grocery stores the frozen fruit is just as fresh as the "fresh" fruit. After harvest, all the fruit gets frozen for storage. The "fresh" fruit you're buying - when out of season - is just the same frozen shit but defrosted for you. Usually with a huge price markup. Check out a whole bag of frozen blueberries v.s. "fresh" blueberries for example.
Also, most fruit in stores is also selectively bred for shelf life. Take a look at heirloom plants if you're interested in this stuff, it's a whole other rabbit hole.
Like the anon I'm replying to I've found that the more natural a food is (or: the less processed, or: the closer it is to the exact source), the better it generally is for you. I generally buy from local farmers whenever I can. It's a win-win. Supports local businesses, keeps me healthy, keeps prices relatively low (no logistics).
