Over the years we've seen more and more "big box" stores carry organic food, Almond milk and other items that 10-15 years ago we could only find at our local health-food store or co-op. Even smaller stores are stocking these items. And farmer's markets seem to be everywhere! The key is to keep your eyes open, and ask. If a grocery store you've stopped in doesn't have something you're looking for, ask if there's another nearby alternative -- a market or produce stand that might have it. We've found some amazing things along the way -- but haven't been without great food, from here to Alaska and back, from East Coast to West.

Costco sells nice packages of berries that are reasonably priced, as well as other fruits and veggies. Yes, you can't eat a big supply of any one item, but as we look around, we can often find something that appeals and is healthy.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180460645169293250.post-45133520785015401842015-12-12T06:07:29.178-08:002015-12-12T06:07:29.178-08:00We look forward to having to shop in the towns we ...We look forward to having to shop in the towns we pass through while RV'ing. In the smaller towns, the fresh veggies might be less 'fresh' than we're used to. If too bad, we pass. Otherwise they're just fine. We jump at the chance to shop at larger supermarkets we pass, provided there's enough room to park (and even more importantly, GET OUT). We never eat out, and do the "slow food" thing in our trailer. It's all about the adventure, whether it's on the stove, or on the trail. MrTommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08296096084733046456noreply@blogger.com
