Quality+over+Quantity

This is Rachelle, Sarah, Chandler page right now. :)

"'Sir, you clearly understand quality and are willing to pay for it. Well, food is no different: You get what you pay for'" (244).

Of course, the healthfulness of a food is not simply a question of its toxicity; we also have to consider its nutritional quality. Is there any reason to think my Whole Foods meal is any more nutritious than the same meal prepared with conventionally grown ingredients. (178)

Rachelle: You are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for a sporty, new, good quality, luxury car. Your reasoning? It's sturdy, and it will last for most of your lifetime. You wouldn't, however, pay for a car that was rundown that needed to be repaired every other weekend—its just too much trouble. So why pay for food that won't benefit your body as well in the long run? Chandler: Even though buying food in jumbo packs is cheaper, it's usually not the most nutritious. When you go to the grocery store don't pick items based on the price, but rather the quality of the food. Because of its freshness, local foods tend to be nutritious, healthy and even tastes better. So, the next time you buy your groceries, try to look for the high quality local foods instead of the king size packs of ramen and chips.
