Healthy eating on the road - Some th oughts/questions.

[Guest guest]

Dear Sudhir,

 

You have brought out an excellent topic. It was three years

ago, I was watching a documentary on HBO with my boss. the documentary

gave graphic depictions as to how the animals were treated in farms and

how they were transported to and from the meat plant and diary etc.,.

It was quite heart rendering. After the program, my boss told me now he

realised why I was a veggie and he to joined the club. I am proud to say

that he hasn't touched meat since then.

 

From then on I too decided to drink milk only from organic cows and have

come to the conclusion that HorizonOrganic Inc, Boulder CO makes the

ideal milk. They have farms in Maryland and Idaho. They are available

at 1888-494-3020 or www.horizonorganic.com. I buy their products from

FreshFields. You can call their number to find your nearest distributor.

I highly recommend their Yogurt, which is quite close to our own

curds(Mosaru..). Their buttermilk and milk are also quite good, though

they may be bit expensive($2.79) for a gallon of skim milk. But it

surely is worth it..

 

Best regards
