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.

When you are travelling, you should have a quick think about where your food has come from. When/if it is locally produced, your food is likely to be tastier, better for the local economy and fresher.

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!

Beef advice

You are best buying from a butcher rather than a supermarket. A quality butcher should really serve a better range of beef cuts than the generic grocery store, he will know the history of his beef, will probably have stored it in the right manner, and he will be able to give you tips on the best way to prepare it.

Beef is a lot more in vogue in the 'u.s.' than anywhere else in the world. If you were to total the burgers and steaks consumed in the world, you would be surprised to find that the Usa eats just about 25% of the total.
