Ok, eating a dish ready made in a tray sometimes helps. But the fact is that in a few decades, our whole diet has changed profoundly. On the labels, additives and preservatives of all kinds are multiplying, to the point of transforming their reading into a puzzle, to the detriment of our health. How to reconnect with the pleasure of eating well, without necessarily breaking the bank or spending hours cooking? In his book "I don't eat industrial products", Stéfane Guilbaud, speaker "fervent defender of food disobedience", tells us everything. Here are 3 tips from his fascinating book:
1/ I am lucid while shopping. Already, we avoid going there on an empty stomach so as not to turn into an ogre who blows up the shopping cart, and we keep in mind that on the shelves, in addition to advertisements, several strategies are put in place to make us more consume, such as light shows, dancing music, "tasting" animations, product positioning or promotions (which very often make us leave with products that were not on our list).

2/ I eat seasonal fruits and vegetables. And that is also a nice gesture for the Earth. Because to reach us, "a fruit imported out of season by plane consumes 10 to 20 times more oil for its transport than the same fruit produced locally and bought in season", GoodPlanet had already explained to us, adding that "the tomato produced locally, but out of season (thus under glass), generates 20 times more greenhouse gases than a local tomato produced at the right time of the year”. Gloops!

3/ I don't do "nutritionism". In short:I am not obsessed with the calories or nutritional qualities of the products I eat. The important thing is to be a little careful, but without excess or obsession. I therefore favor raw, fresh and natural foods, sold by artisans and stores that advocate sustainable, reasoned or organic farming and farming. And I listen to my stomach rather than food fads!
