There comes a point, after eating local and good foods, that you no longer desire the stuff that comes from "fast food" chains. The foods taste of grease and artificial flavoring. I am finding that I need to be a bit more prepared. My fast foods these days are Boars Head sliced turkey and hummus...it goes well with a multi-grain wrap!
I am even sorry to say that Progresso soups, really a good canned soup, no longer hold my interest. Life has changed. My humus and turkey was far superior to the chicken noodle, low fat and low sodium Progresso that was dinner. I am thinking that the curve for changing eating habits is about three months...I have stuck with my new eating style with rare exceptions (like trying canned soup tonight). I steam and broil all kinds of veggies, I am eating more fish and I am staying away from too much butter, no mayo, and very little bread. Finally I am starting to crave the right stuff. Working on the fruits but do get my berries in yogurt most mornings. (Just a note: frozen blueberries are pretty darn good).
Keep faithful and stay away from things that are not grown and try to eat those that are local. It will grow on you!
