Do you ever feel a little bit “different” because of your affection for real, natural foods?
Perhaps we should take a little time out from time to time to laugh at ourselves a bit from the perspective of those who aren’t quite so “into” this sort of thing.
After all, for the most part they think we’re nuts (and in my case, they really aren’t too far off – hee, hee!).
So, here are a few “red flags” that you’re a full-fledged “foodie”…just in case you thought you were fooling anyone.
15 Signs that You are a “REAL Foodie”
- Your fridge is full of mason jars.
- You never leave home without a cooler.
- You know how to pronounce “Quinoa.”
- Only a small percentage of your food comes from the grocery store.
- You know which weeds in your yard are edible.
- Your house guests can’t identify most of what’s in your pantry.
- Your favorite foods are illegal.
- You store a bin full of worms in your kitchen (or any place in your home).
