Why Local Organic Foods Taste So Much Better

I was in San Francisco this weekend and we bought ice cream from a local mom and pop shop featuring organic fresh ingredients in their ice cream. I chose the Mexican vanilla ice cream made with vanilla beans. Not vanilla syrup or vanilla powder. He asked me why it tasted so much better than the commercial brands.

For one, commercial brands use fillers, stabilizers, artificial flavors like fake vanilla, preservatives, and other ingredients to make the product to their liking. However, these fillers and preservatives that are used in commercial products are unnecessary but are used to create their food products to their liking. They are used to create a texture that holds the ice cream so that is lasts longer or so that it stays frozen longer or what not.

This ice cream had an amazing flavor because the ingredients are fresh and organic. You won't find stabilizers and fillers in here. The ingredients are so fresh that the product has to sell or else it will go bad. Also, food products that are local and organic have intense flavors because it's so fresh and unrefined.

In a world full of fake products and fake ingredients, in a world where there is so much mediocre food products we want more fresh, natural, intense flavored foods. The ice cream we ate was so good and so tasty and fresh, we want more of these products. Put down those commercialized food products and support local food products. Not only are they better and more nutritious for you, but they do taste better.
