    How To Buy Groceries – A Message From Environmental Working Group

    March 9, 2012 By Bro

    EWG Logo

    Environmental Working Group’s (EWG.org’s) President, Ken Cook, has provided a short list of helpful links that offer the best options for making the healthiest and most affordable food choices in today’s ever-more confusing food landscape.

    These are the links that he personally uses before shopping to help him decide between the grocery store or farmers’ markets, or what meats to buy, which fruits and vegetables he can trust are safest for him and his family.


    EWG’s Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce. Ken uses this list to check which fruits or vegetables are OK to buy conventionally grown or organically grown. However, IMPORTANTLY: Organic fruits and vegetables are grown on superior soils and are much less likely to have harmful pesticides, chemicals and toxins. Organic farmers are extremely scrupulous, diligent and must take many more precautionary measures.


    The Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food compass
    just released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This interactive map shows where to find USDA-supported projects in your area that support local food.


    The Label Decoder
    in EWG’s Meat Eater’s Guide to Climate Change + Health. EWG included this handy explainer on how to read labels on meat and dairy products. From free-range to lean to assist you in knowing what you’re buying.


    Organic vs. Natural.
    What’s the difference between natural and organic anyway? Our friends at The Organic Center have published this handy tip sheet to help us out on that one.


    EWG’s Sugar in Children’s Cereal Report.
    In researching this report, published in December, EWG.org discovered that many popular cereals have more sugar than Twinkies or chocolate chip cookies. When Ken is looking for an alternative breakfast choice, he checks out the delicious recipes in EWG’s Five Healthy Breakfast Tips.
