Far from privileged and after you know the products to avoid it is quite easy.
90% of foods in the grocery store is prepared or processed foods...
Gmo is everywhere... just look at the difference in fruits from the 80's to today... it has all been genetically sliced and created for the products we have on the shelves today...
Even our farmers are forced to buy gmo seeds to plant their crops with... seeds designed no to produce it's own seeds so the farmers have to buy more every year because surprise, surprise, they can't just harvest and keep some for the next years crops...
Only way your avoiding that is ORGANIC foods charged 3-4 times more than the gmo counterpart...
And have you tried feeding kids health food... it's damn neer impossible in todays market... it's hard enough to steer them away from the sugar filled crap on the shelves, and sugar is a worse situation in todays world than gmo is...
Not made easy that almost every snack for school has sugar as a base, and peanuts not being allowed in school. (For good reason peanut allergies, I'm not disputing that.) means sending your kid with the same fruits in their lunchbag they refuse to eat, or buying the processed foods they will eat. And then the same trap the expencive snacks being the kind that would pass your ingredients list check, that cost 5 times the items that go on special.
Healthy eating is an insanely pricy venture. Junkfood is rediculously cheaper next to health food.. and who has the time or patience for cooking these days.. It's a chore that no one has time for in a working family any more.
These days I just skip fresh veggies and buy frozen, because they go bad before anyone is even willing to sample any. It's money spent on items that will go in the garbage more likely than ever be eaten.
