I admit, I frequently lay with the enemy: "gotta eat," right? That said, the balance of my effort is expended on alternatives. It's not easy to swim against the current, but it's one hell of an exercise regimen! The incessant cognitive dissonance makes life interesting, and I'll fight them to the bitter end. Most importantly, I'm teaching my children (21, 22, 28) to do the same. So far, 2 of 3 are vegan--and well aware on a personal level of the perils of unwitting compliance to corporate ag. BTW--Wellman here. Fight on!

Like HyVee, but sometimes the prices aren't the best. progressoid Jun 2014 #13

Do you feel like it's worth dealing with the Fuel Saver cards Cairycat Jun 2014 #16

Sometimes it works, sometimes it's just a gimmick. progressoid Jun 2014 #17

I would probably shop at HyVee more if their prices weren't so high Cairycat Jun 2014 #15
