Normalize Eating Real Food

If you’ve ever caught an egg just being laid, drank a cup of hot and frothy milk fresh from the cow, or cooked pork tenderloin still hot from the slaughter, you will know it just hits differently.

It has been so long since we have shopped for meat from a grocery store that I simply don’t trust it. There are farmers everywhere ready to sell you their meat, if you can find the value in the cost.

Knowing your food and being involved in it arriving to your plate is how people have eaten since the beginning of time. I don’t care what label you follow, if it’s not from a farmer, or someone who knows the farmer, then you really just don’t know. The rough hands, sweaty brow, and sunburned back behind the food you eat are what make it so delicious and worthwhile.

We waste so much. So much time in front of screens, so much money on clothing fads, so much energy running back and forth. But most of us don’t want to sew into the thing that keeps on giving - real food: The connection that brings a soul back to life, opens the eyes to the truth, and satiates the body like never before.

Food shouldn’t be the thing you spend the least money or time on. It is the very thing that is made to give us life and health, and it is about time we get acquainted with it. It’s about time to ditch the packaged goods, the fake food, the colorings, and the frozen aisle of commodity meats.

Get one taste of real food, grown right before your eyes, with the beauty of earth all around it, cooked with love, and you’ll never go back.
