After working at a coop for 4 years I've definitely begun to buy all my food there. I have switched to ethically raised/non hormone injected meat for the inproved flavor and basic ethics. I buy a few pounds of it when it's on sale, freeze it and use it later. I also 'dumpster dive' for veggies outside the back of the produce section, siting my rabbits' voracious appetites as the reason. I do give them a lot but almost ALL the stuff tossed is totally edible. Also, eating 'real' foods is a real way to cut down costs, as noted before. It's all the extra stuff that costs. Thanks for a great article!
