Why eat fresh produce from your region?

Save and Eat Well by Preferring Fresh and Regional Products.

For 2 simple reasons:

1. No need for a freezer to keep them

The 1st reason is that fresh produce does not need to be stored in the freezer. And since the freezer is a very energy-intensive appliance, it saves a lot of electricity.

In addition, frozen or canned products are more expensive than fresh products. You do not believe me ? Take a look at Picard...

2. Regional products are often cheaper

The second reason is that regional products are, in most cases, less expensive than exotic or out of season products. These products often come from the 4 corners of the planet by plane.

Where and how to find them? Long live the market!

It's easy to eat well and save money if you choose locally grown seasonal fruits and vegetables.

The easiest way to find these products is of course to shop at the market rather than at the supermarket.

That said, many supermarket chains are increasingly dedicating one of their shelves to regional products.

And to make good savings at the market, know that it is best to go there around 12 p.m. If you want to know why, read Celine's article.
