Since my house has adopted a different approach to nutrition, we now shop the perimeter of the stores, buying fresh fruits and veggies. The only things that come in a package would be beans, legumes and brown rice. Everything else is fresh....so, yeah, we do shop more often...but it's been worth it.

Good points, Raven! I watched that show a few times, too. Of course it's biased and emotional etc like all good tv is, but it has a good point.
I've been trying to eat better here, too. And you know it's a lot of fun cooking food instead of reheating something frozen or ordering in. I think the hardest thing to be disciplined about is portion control, since most of us grew up with "finish everything on your plate or you don't get dessert" from our parents.
