Because I'm a gregarious guy, it's easy for me to start conversations with strangers and I love talking about organic choices. Many people are truly interested in eating healthy foods, but they don't know where to find it or what exactly the difference is. Over the years my wife, Sandy, has trained me and my taste buds to enjoy healthy foods. For instance wheat breads - white bread just doesn't taste good to me anymore. Organic milk is a little more expensive but really tastes great. We have pretty much eliminated sugar from our diet. Most food, if prepared properly, does not need a bunch of seasonings to have a great taste. Being a heart patient, salt is no longer welcome in my body, so, I've removed it from my diet. Since changing what I eat, my energy level has increased, I've lost weight, and according to friends and family, I'm looking gooood!

Being on the shady side of 60 and still working twelve to fourteen hour days, nutrition is a big priority. Fast foods are out of the question. All my co-workers know what I'm doing and are starting to try many of my discoveries to help them feel better, and save money too. Eating out every day usually costs six to seven dollars, I spend less than three and get better nutrition. Soup and salad from home, tastes great and stays with you better. Also, sandwiches made with healthy deli meats (antibiotic-free, nitrite-free, and all-natural) make a delicious lunch and are so much better for you than that super-sized burger and fries.

Has anyone tried Bison? We just found a place that sells range-raised bison and have ordered some products from them. Will let you know how that turns out. We want to find more places to buy organic and natural foods, at reasonable prices, share our research with everyone, and have a little fun as well. Give us your input, maybe some other parts of the country have things available that could help us here in Oklahoma.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
