Buy Local Food : As an ‘everything in moderation’ kind of guy, I’d find a strict local food diet fascinating but obsessive and intimidating, says Peter Marks, program coordinator for the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project in Asheville, N.C. He suggests a more gradual approach: Every week or month, replace one food in your diet that’s provided by a big, faraway company with a locally grown food.

If you're eating foods out of season, it's likely that they have come a long way - try to eat food that is both locally produced and can be found at that time of year, locally!

Our survival no longer depends on our knowledge of nature's cycles, but there is much to be gained from getting back this lost wisdom. Regardless of technology's advances, the fact remains that food in season is the best. Apples taste better when they haven't been flown half way around the world. And buying in season encourages local producers who, boosted by factors like the rise in farmers' markets, are building a more sustainable food industry.

Beef advice

Beef is a lot more prized in the United states than anywhere else in the world. If one were to keep a record of all the meals containing beef prepared in the world, you would discover that the United states accounts for nearly 25% of it.

In most circumstances you will be better off shopping from a specialised butcher instead of a supermarket. A high street butcher should really have a more extensive range of cuts than the self-service store, he will know the history of his beef, is more likely to have looked after it in the right manner, and he will probably be willing to give you a few hints on a few cooking tips.
