You ever just want that simple night of cooking but are concerned about the food and the ingredients.
Just a simple pasta recipe with a red sauce.

We will look at 2 ingredients.

  1. White Flour Pasta
  2. Pasta sauce.

White Flour.
Bleached?
Brominated? Potassium Bromate? Potassium bromate has been banned in most of developed countries in 1994 including all countries in European Union (chlorine, bromates, and peroxides in food is banned in the EU), UK, Canada.
Chlorine dioxide?
Ammonium carbonate and Alum? Chalk?
Sorbitan and Alloxen?
Enriched? with what synthetic nutrients?
Hybridized?
Pure starch?
Less fiber?
Harder to digest?
GMO? Sprayed?

Pasta sauce
Sugar? what kind? Maybe GMO corn? HFCS?
Now made with olive oil? oh but still has Canola (Canadian oil) in it. OR LEAR (low erucic acid rapeseed)
Canola is that a plant?
Didn't the Canada pay the FDA a nice chunk of change to
put Canola on GRAS?
Hybridized?
Oxidized?

GMO?
Bleaching and Degumming?

Spices? what is it a big secret which ones? Irradiated spices?
Spices maybe MSG?
Natural flavors? Castoreum is a natural flavor (Beaver anal gland).

Something to think about.
READ Food labels and Research everything.
Find a brand you like and stick with it.

Sauces should be easy to make on your own.
I always hear San Marzano tomatoes are best.

I do like Einkorn pasta the best :) research that , the OG of wheat! is the world's most ancient wheat.
We need the important Vitamins and Minerals. Not the synthetic crap added back.
Sprouted is another great choice if you can find.
Obviously organic NON GMO
