“ To reduce, I try to eat as little processed and packaged food as possible. Take a Twinkie for example, ingredients comprising that frankenfood are gathered from all over, transported, refined, packaged, and preserved with toxins to keep it from being edible to ants and bacteria that might also call it a snack. Now compare that to picking an orange off a local tree. I didn’t burn any fossil fuels, there were no toxic gasses emitted into the air, no lights must be shined on it so capture sales, and there isn’t a plastic wrapper that must be discarded afterwards that won’t decompose for 2000 years. Around the globe, the peak times of day for gas and electricity usage are mealtimes. I’m a raw foodist and more often than not, I only require a little mixing or cutting with my hands to enjoy an exquisite meal. www.RawSacramento.org
