Sustainable Pot Luck

Sustainable Pot Luck

For the sustainable pot luck in class, I brought organic carrots, organic salad dressing, and ranch veggie dip. The carrots and salad dressing were organic and had sustainable ingredients. These items could have been more sustainable if they were purchased at a local producer. The ranch veggie dip had canola oil which has GMO's and the organic food can not contain GMO's. 





According to my True Food app on my iPhone, certified organic products are not allowed to use GMO's in their ingredients. Otherwise, you want to look for labels tat specifically state non-GMO. The True Food app has a GMO guide with various types of food you eat discussing what to watch out for.



I am continuing to use the suggestions I learn in Colloquium as well as my True Food app when I am purchasing food for my family. It even has suggestions on which infant formulas to avoid. I want my family and our soon-to-be new addition to have the most healthy, sustainable foods.
