This post is so much more than just a food swap list – it’s practically a complete guide!

These tips are all those I try to follow myself and promote, and seeing them laid out step-by-step in a way that makes it clear why we should eat real food (/whole food), how we can, and some top examples is absolutely amazing.

Thanks for such great content Kristin! 🙂
Best wishes,
James

We have drastically changed the way we eat over the past couple years. We have never really eaten alot of processed food. I have mostly cooked from scratch my entire life (my mom did/does so). My husband tells people we don’t have food in our house we have ingredients because we have to prepare it to eat it. Anyway this article is great! It has given me some additional information and options to switch over to for some of the things we have struggled to find in our local stores.

Hey Irene, Thank you and welcome! This is the post you’re looking for: https://livesimply.me/real-food-fridge-tour/ There’s a video in this post where I go into how I store everything in my fridge to keep it fresh.

Interesting article Kristin. One image really caught my eyes though.. the one of the inside of your fridge and I was wondering if there was an article already about that (pardon me, I don’t really follow your blog but randomly fell upon it today. Found it interesting how you put carrots in water and I see paper towels as well. Is there an in dept article on how to keep your produce as long as possible? If so, I would be really interested in reading it. If not, you should really make one!

Hey Terri, Thank you, So glad it was helpful. I don’t know too much about Pete and Gerry’s. From their website, they point out that their eggs aren’t pastured, just free range: https://www.peteandgerrys.com/blog/pasture-raised-eggs I recommend calling them and asking how their chickens are raised–ask about feed, living conditions, how much room the chicken have, do they roam outside and for how long? That will give you a good idea of their practices. A company that’s raising animals this way will be very transparent in their practices and very proud to share. Here’s their phone number (from the website): 1-800-210-6657
