Frozen fish, all the added water.

So much salt in canned foods.

Others?

The fact it is so expensive...for what you are getting.

I dont know why, but grocery stores next to or on Indian reservations seem to have a better selection of meats.

I buy chorizo down the road next to the Ft Belknap rez.

Those "rubberized" (or whateverinhell they are) sleeves that things like crackers come in that you can't tear even once you cut into them.

Milk containers that have those damned little "just try to peel them off" safety stickers over the opening, which are totally unnecessary since the cap already has to be peeled to open the container.

Meat that is packaged with excess fat concealed on the bottom.

I love Chorizo but the only stuff I can find it that gooey chit they sell at the Wall Mart over in WA.
Course i was spoiled by the Basque Chorizo I used to get in NV.....trust me you haven't lived untill you've had Basque Chorizo.

Only thing you can buy at the local Nez Perce rez is cigarettes and poker chips.

For store bought Gem Meat Packing makes a pretty darn good Basque chorizo. My buddy in ID spoiled me with basque chorizo. Much better than the Mexican version.

Save a ripe one to bag with them. They'll be fine in a day or two.

Local grocery chain got a good buy last Easter on frozen pork loins. Thawed them, sliced and packaged them and sold them as fresh chops. Never marked previously frozen.

I bought a ham a couple days after Easter, when on sale you know.

Took it home and froze it, cooked a couple months later.


It tasted awful, usually those store hams are pretty good.


I looked at the expire date and it was well within the time allowed.....but the sticker looked funny.

Peeled it off and found another sticker underneath. Ham was a year and a half past expiration.

Soy is in LITERALLY EVERYTHING nowadays. That sheit is terrible for us. Besides the fact that nearly all soybeans are GMO it has a compound that in humans mimics estrogen, and has been implicated in why a lot of males have low testosterone, females menstruating below age 14, etc. The majority of 'food' now days is garbage, especially anything that comes with a barcode on it, but even the meat and produce of 50 years ago was way healthier than what is available today, without having to spend $25 for a chicken or $10 per pound of lettuce.

There was an article a few years ago that I read that detailed it all, but has since been nearly whitewashed from the .net via g00gle. I found an article about it, and the original below. After so much backlash from the soy industry, the title was changed, and removed from search results. I saved a text copy in case it ever completely disappears.

i wouldn't even know where to begin. firstly, let's talk packaging and how much it costs in terms of total product cost. especially in small items. it's shocking.

and then we get into the food itself, whether or not we're concerned about gmo stuff.

and then the amount of processing that occurs, and on and on.

we need food, and have industrial suppliers.

but, gardening & homegrown is not easy.

One day when I worked at Wilson Pack, we got a bunch of boxes from cold storage that contained pork loins. We rewrapped them and redated them.

I'm picturing a store manager with those stickers shoved in his unconscious mouth in the back of an amberlamps
