I've started grocery shopping with more conscious thought and decisions instead of on auto pilot. Here's my checklist of how I now approach grocery shopping:

  • 1. Do I really need it?
  • 2. How was the product made, raised?
  • 3. How many vegetarian meals can I eat this week?
  • 4. Where's the product been shipped from?
  • 5. Is there an alternative product with less wasteful packaging?
  • 6. Is this product going to require a lot of energy to store and prepare?
  • 7. Did I bring my reusable bags? Oops, back out to the car to get them!
