Today’s Breakfast:

  • Kashi GOLean Cereal
  • Skim Lactose-Free Milk (Neilson)
  • Strawberries (SE corner St. Lawrence Market)

Well, the worst part of this exploration of my food are some not so fun discoveries of food I’ve thought was good.

After eating today’s breakfast, I discovered Kashi (owned by the larger Kellogg’s) has, beyond my notice, been the subject of fairly intense criticism from members of the clean-eating community. As of September, 2011 they were facing a class-action lawsuit for use of hazardous substances in their foods; Kashi also contains high levels of GMO soy: in fact, 100% of the soy in the cereal was genetically modified. Not good!

I’m also wondering how clean-eating conscious lactose-intolerant individuals come to terms with clean dairy. Anyone know any organic, animal-conscious dairy farmers in the GTA? Could I use the lacteeze drops?

A collection of this week’s meals, including:

Green leaf & romaine salad with radishes, carrot, eggs and emmental (all except cheese from St. Lawrence Market).

Quinoa (with Earth Balance & parsley), broiled portabello topped with arugula and broiled asparagus (portabello and asparagus with garlic balsamic glaze) (All Market)

Whole wheat bows with shrimp, tomato sauce and spinach (only spinach was local. Wah-wah.)

Tonight’s Dinner:

  • Rice: Brown jasmine rice, Rube’s at St. Lawrence Market (Origin unknown)
  • Chicken: Whole Organic Chicken, Yorkshire Valley Farms (Betolianni Organic Farm, Peterborough)
  • Sauce: Diana (soon to be replaced by homemade!), Low-Sodium Soy Sauce, Raw Honey (Meadowview Honey, Stouffville), Hot Sauce
  • Greens: Spinach & Broccoli, Marvin Gardens (Waterdown, ON)

I love cute kitchen tools

These are the cutest cutting boards I’ve ever seen. I especially love the pig.
