User ID: 72171853 United States 07/17/2016 05:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I stopped trusting olive oil a while back, but still used it, mostly trying to get California olive oil, but it's so expensive. I started using hemp seed oil instead of olive oil for salad dressing. Vitacost has a good price on it. I don't think anyone is producing fake hemp seed oil yet. Honey is another one - how can you bring yourself to buy it after reading about how it's adulterated. They did that study and then nothing changed. I'm not paying big bucks for what amounts to corn syrup, probably contaminated too. Honey got so expensive that I switched to maple syrup, the price is about the same if you buy it at Trader Joes, or get NOW brand at Swanson's online or Vitacost. I like maple syrup much better. I never ate much seafood at all, but had to stop even the occasional can of albacore over this - they say it's really snake mackerel and not fit for consumption. Deep sea fishing is so destructive anyway, I hate to support it and only did for my health. If you read up about livestock production, chicken and egg farming and slaughtering, confinement hog operations and hog slaughtering, cattle production and shipping, it is all so pathetic. It's truly, deeply barbaric. And filthy - it's not proper food for human beings. And the jobs aren't proper jobs either. |

Vegetables, fruit trees, berry bushes, etc. Raise your own chickens, rabbits, or other sources of protein. If you can't do this, get to know your local farmers. I buy meat, honey, eggs locally--most of the time. If you live in an urban area, find local urban farmers. Use the internet, all sorts of sites for local farms, how to grow your own food, etc. There are also local organizations like Homeless Farming, Church farming, etc that grow food and sell their produce. |

G-d spoke all these words, to respond: "I am the Lord, your G-d, Who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall not have the gods of others in My presence. You shall not make for yourself a graven image or any likeness which is in the heavens above, which is on the earth below, or which is in the water beneath the earth. You shall neither prostrate yourself before them nor worship them, for I, the Lord, your G-d, am a zealous G-d, Who visits the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, upon the third and the fourth generation of those who hate Me, and perform loving kindness to thousands [of generations], to those who love Me and to those who keep My commandments." ~ Exodus 20:1-6 "Woe to those who say of the evil that it is good and of the good that it is evil; who present darkness as light and light as darkness, who present bitter as sweet and sweet as bitter." ~Isaiah 5:20 "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt [link to immigrationcounters.com] “America is great because she is good.

Thats right gmo rapeseed oil aka Canadian Oil because theres no such thing as a canola vegetable. LMAO Quoting: Anonymous Coward 61183626 Almost to mention the resturant. I'll just say its an italian wanna be one. Here's the kicker I also heard olive oil being shipped in from Italy is being pinched. Meaning they keep the high quality stuff in their country they don't export the good stuff. |

If you know what the real stuff tastes like, looks like, feels like to the touch, smells like, understand it's characteristics....you can find it. ie... If you have ever eaten real red snapper, you won't be fooled by catfish or tilapia. |
