I bought Iceberg lettuce for the first time…like ever. I must admit, I was kind of embarrassed. I had a basket (I buy less if I carry it, as opposed to push it) full of vegetables and I was…
Not to worry, I’m not asking you to go out and spend the big bucks on the mack daddy U-10 scallops. Instead, I stuck my lowly head in the freezer section of my local conventional (real food exists outside…
