ShadyGreenThumb said:Thanks @newyorkrita. I think I will have to change stores to one a bit farther to get a better selection of organic foods. But nice to know my neighborhood store has a few things to get me by. Once I have my staples, I won't need to go to the store for those things as often as I do for organic bananas/bread etc, which at least my close-by Walmart Grocery Store has.

The Football Spaghetti Squash casserole was delish btw. I didn't buy enough tomatoes to make a good tomato sauce. 10 wasn't enough? So I made it a tomato veggie sauce adding more zucchini and yellow squash. It became a nice vegetable sauce with great flavor. Carrots added the sweetness needed. No sugar added.


It is surprising just how much of our food is GMO, especially corn. I eat corn, buy corn on the cob locally all the time. And I never buy organic, just the regular fruits and veggies. If I were younger I would worry about it much more but having reached my old age I hope to be all right.
