Addressing the Cost of Fruits (WAS: Exploring Satiation)

[Guest guest]

Yes, I buy by the case. One great strategy is to find the distributors that supply the local stores. (Whole Foods typically has its own distribution in place for most things, wrong try to bark up.) Many distributors have certain open hours, when We, the People can come in and buy by the case at wholesale prices. If you live anywhere near a major metro area, find the distributors for the organic produce in your area. It may be a drive, but once a week can be well worth the effort.

 

Talk to farmers. Don't just GO to the farmers market, TALK to farmers. Buy by the case from them, too ... first, even. I just bought several cases of fruit last weekend, from a farmer that has seen me buy in his booth week after week after week ... and he gave me a HUGE discount.

 

Search for overripe bananas. What's overripe to most produce managers is food for us. Ask whether they have bananas ... even a whole case .. that they consider overripe. Buy it! And TALK to them, let them know who you are. Be interested in their welfare, not just your own.

 

Forage for food. Sometimes we find immense food supplies falling on the ground in people's yards. Just ASK them whether they will allow you to pick the fruit. Most of the time, we get a "yes".

 

There is more ... these are just a few quick ideas. Most people incur MANY expenditures for things they don't need or even want, regardless of how much money they have.

 

Best,

Elchanan

I have no problems eating an apple and being satisfied. However, I would never be able to get enough calories and would likely wither away if I only ate to be satisfied. I was never really a big eater.So basically I should eat at least 5 apples, 5 oranges, 5 carrots, 5 bananas, 1-2 good size salads, and some nuts/seeds in a day. That seems like it would be very expensive. I need to find some places to get some bulk organic fruits.--ScottDon't under estimate the wisdom of nature.If man made it, don't eat it.POISONINGaNATION.com--- Elchanan wrote:"Elchanan" <Elchanan Exploring Satiation (WAS: Nuts and Seeds: High-Fat Foods, Not Proteins))Thu, 13 Sep 2007 08:55:18 -0700

 

 

 

 

Hi Nancy,

 

Would you be willing to develop and explore further the idea of "feel satisfied"?

The issue I have been having is trying to find farmers in this area. The one's that do exist participate in CSA programs, and they are a not allowing new customers until next year.Distributors is a good idea. I will try that route.--ScottDon't under estimate the wisdom of nature.If man made it, don't eat it.POISONINGaNATION.com--- Elchanan wrote:"Elchanan" <Elchanan Addressing the Cost of Fruits (WAS: Exploring Satiation)Thu, 13 Sep 2007 12:15:36 -0700

I have been reading up on it. I used to do that a lot when I was a kid, but I don't remember what anything is anymore....lol It is tough to forage in this area because everything is pavement. I have been scoping out the local parks and stuff, so I can be prepared for the spring. I also take frequent trips to the mountains.I am starting to prepare a spot in my yard this weekend for a good size garden too. However, my neighbor planted some trees so it won't be long before it is shaded. I should still get enough sun from the front though.--ScottDon't under estimate the wisdom of nature.If man made it, don't eat it.POISONINGaNATION.com--- Elchanan wrote:"Elchanan" <ElchananRE: Addressing the Cost of Fruits (WAS: Exploring Satiation)Thu, 13 Sep 2007 20:39:04 -0700And try foraging.

Yes ... I'm talking more about people's yards, fruit trees growing all over the place, not so much in the parks. The city governments, in their great wisdom, have planted millions of trees that produce no food at all.

The issue I have with peoples yards is that many use chemicals in this area.--ScottDon't under estimate the wisdom of nature.If man made it, don't eat it.POISONINGaNATION.com--- Elchanan wrote:"Elchanan" <ElchananRE: Addressing the Cost of Fruits (WAS: Exploring Satiation)Fri, 14 Sep 2007 07:15:41 -0700Yes ...

Yes, sad but true. But often more in their front than back yards, and if this is the case, then you could have a real party. And, you can always ask! No need to be shy, this is your life!
