I think I am like many people; I go to the grocery store (lets say Stop and Shop) I buy sale items, as much organic as I can, fruits, veggies, and yogurts for the kids, meats for the hubby......I often dont have time to read the labels. I am feeding a family of five and trying to save money. As I am in my kitchen, I am upset with myself. I just noticed that my tomatoes say product of Mexico on them. Why on earth I am buying tomatoes from Mexico, when there are farmers struggling in this country (this state) to make ends meet and put food on their tables (not to mention Mexican officials are holding an American soldier in prison, who shouldnt be there). I am trying not to blame myself, but more so the supermarkets. Why cant this country start to take care of our own!!!!!!! Small businesses, local farms and farm stands, mom and pop restaurants instead of chains, the list goes on. Makes me very sad for my children, and angry at myself ( a small business owner) for not paying more attention.GRRRRRRRRRR
