Suzan about the “What the Food” Collection:
"Organic, vegan, artisanal, bonus, sugar-free or slave-free. Do you know what to buy in the supermarket? With so much conflicting information about food and the knowledge that any choice you make has a direct impact on your health, the environment and animal welfare.
I don't understand it and feel like I'm lost in a maze of misinformation. I would prefer healthy and tasty food that is good for the environment, animal welfare and my wallet at the same time. But once I’m in the supermarket, I am flooded with labels, promotions and temptations. First I put the free-range eggs in my basket, but a little later I exchange them for the organic version. Quite pricey, and who says these mother hens get a good life? I am also starting to have doubts about fair trade chocolate, artisan spelled bread and light juices. I'm reading conflicting information and don't know what to believe anymore. I believe that we need less choice stress, so that we can continue to live a healthy life. Where are the avocados? Where is the emergency exit?"
