In answer the first question what exactly do i think about when making food choices. A few years ago i used to just eat what was available as fast as possible and that also meant a lot of fast food. One summer i cut down on the soda and fried food and saw a significant change not in just appearance but in feeling, i felt like crap and always was in a food coma after soda and or fried food. I don't drink soda that much anymore but fast food i have cut off from my food desires, only if late at night and there's nothing else would i get it. In recent years my family has shopped for more organic foods and natural stuff rather than the processed garbage that doesn't do any good for our bodies. In New York and even here at home the one thing i try to get is Omega 3 eggs and milk, i don't know how that impacts the environment though. The main thing i care about on when i eat or when i go grocery shopping is how good the food is going to taste, which is everyone's same concern.
Recalling what i ate in the past two days, this morning i had a nutri bar and that was it until now. Yesterday i had grilled tilapia, kebab and rice for lunch and tomato basil soup for dinner. I would have to say the tilapia might have had the biggest impact to the environment. If i remember correctly its a imported fish which would mean, it is brought on a boat, and then put onto a truck, then brought to the store. And their's probably a few other things that i missed that i have no idea about but anything imported is probably a lot of work which requires energy, which means...environmental impact.
