Organic Natural Breakfast
A few months ago I watched Food Inc. To say that move shook me to my core is an understatement. Watching that movie reminded me of when I watched Friends of God and Rosie O’Donnell’s Gay Family Cruise. After seeing those two documentaries, in addition to having some life changing experiences, my “religious” perspective was shook to its core and I went on a two year journey of self discovery and spiritual enlightenment. Watching Food Inc, also reminded me of when I read and saw The Laramie Project and Angels of America. After experiences those two pieces of art, in addition to having life changing experiences, my paradigm of thinking of same sex orientation was forever changed.
Watching Food Inc, altered my view of food. I felt it in my gut! For a few years now, I’ve “wanted” to change my eating habits. Its pretty healthy but I could stand to be vegetarian/vegan/raw. I could stand to be more intentional about consuming only organic or natural foods. I could stand to eat more fruit. I could stop snacking on certain foods which have no nutritional value. I even bought a lot of cookbooks on eating raw, vegan and vegetarian. I even once dated a raw foodist! But nothing worked.
Then I saw Food Inc. Have you seen it? It’s available to watch instantly on Netflix, if you have a subscription. Shoot, even if you don’t have a subscription, I’d give you my login info just so you can watch it. It’s that important. I started taking notes while watching it. I’d post those later. I bought the book too. It’s next on my reading list. I had my entire family watch it over Christmas too. At some points, my mother cried. I understood the sentiment too. But I’ll talk more about Food Inc. later.
Because of Food Inc, I’ve changed a lot of my eating habits. But I still have a long way to go.
Sometimes I make way too much so I freeze the rest and later on I have a homemade sorbet and its just as good too!
What do you consume for breakfast? Do you have suggestions on various fruits I could add to my smoothies? Have you seen Food Inc?
