    Michael Pollan states that “it is better to pay the grocer (our edit: or the farmer!) than the doctor.” What are your thoughts on this assertion?

    absolutely agree with the statement. When I pay the farmer, I know where my money goes and even better that I am aware where my food is sourced.

      Absolutely! Preventative care through a healthy diet, plus supporting local businesses as well, is always best in my mind.
