The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 4.67/5 from 3 reviews More Than a Cookbook...a Great Shopping ToolIf you're like me, you're baffled by the confusing and often contradictory information about pesticides in food, genetically modified foods, mercury in fish, certified organics, and the like. The more I read, the dizzier I get. Fresh Choices is helping me sort out all of the complicated and scientific information about these issues. It does so in an easy to read manner, and it serves as a tool for me, the primary shopper in the family who wants to make sound, healthy choices about the food that goes on my table. I was particularly inspired by the profiles about people who have made a difference in the areas of health and the environment; from highly visible individuals to those working quietly behind the scenes. Every home should have a copy of this cookbook!Fresh Choices has quickly become one of my favorite cookbooks. It's a great blend of delicious recipies and important information to know as the grocery shopper and primary cook for my family. I've learned a lot about which fruits and vegetables have the least pesticide residues and how to choose meats and seafood that are low in toxins. The easy to follow, yet delicious recipies have been a big hit at my dinner table and I am confident I am making more healthful choices for my family at the grocery store. Every home should have a copy of this cookbook! GOOD ADVICE!Joachim and Davis' want to "steer you in the direction of the purest and safest meats, poultry, seafood, and dairy products." They say, "Options like pasture-raised chicken, grass-fed beef and RBGH-free milk are increasingly available in local food markets." (They aren't in most small town grocers, but with an informative book like this one hopes grocers will take the incentive and provide them.) The authors also recommend substitutes for those foods they don't recommend, such as switching from Atlantic cod to Alaskan Pollock, hook-and-line caught cod, or sable fish. It's not a book to be glanced at. The authors talk seriously about food processing, pesticides and more. They also use humor when pointing out facts. Highly Recommended.
