Only products we have actually tried and liked are reviewed here. Since there are many wonderful planet powered food options on the market, it can be difficult to know what to buy without feeling a bit overwhelmed. Many of the brands and products will not be familiar, so how do you know that you will get something good and not waste your money? Been there, done that is the simple response. We have tried lots of products over the years and while eating food as nature intended is always recommended let’s face it we also need convenience and variety. So many of the “prepared” or “packaged” food that we review will make becoming a plant powered person easier. While we focus on “substitutes” quite a bit, we also highlight products that are just better than what you may typically see on the grocery shelf. We recommend organically especially those that are also made naturally without additives and preservatives. Being plant powered is also about being healthier by steering clear of highly processed foods that are high in sugar and processed fats. But convenience and variety may also have you opting for meatless, vegetarian or plant based options that may not be very healthy. So do read ingredients carefully since not everything it’s says on the label may good for you. The products reviewed here have been subjected to careful scrutiny and are healthy. That said, packed foods should always been chosen with care and eaten in moderation. Fresh fruits and vegetables along with whole grains, nuts and beans are the nutrition best sources. Eating these foods does take more time and effort and our blog and week by week posts try to make choosing a plant based lifestyle easier.
