“Food production is energy intensive, says the article in today’s paper, from the natural gas used to make fertilizer, to the fuel used to harvest and transport crops, to the plastic wrap used to package items.”
The more we buy food with less processing such as chicken, but not pre-cooked/marinated chicken
the better the price. I’m buying eggs from a friend at $2.50 a dozen, hope she doesn’t have to raise
her prices any time soon.
I normally buy very little that is processed, but the increasing prices are making it hard to reduce expenses.
Maybe we should start eating more beans.
