Black vs Organic

Posted by Edwin 

Luxury packaging is often associated with black colour blocking on the packaging you buy.  But is it really as exclusive as you perceive it to be?  Stores such as Woolworths, Checkers and Pick and Pay sell products on a separate shelf to convince customers that it would be a treat or spoil when buying products that are mainly one colour in packaging.  Also these products are significantly more expensive!

This is not as much as a warning so much as an eye opener for you to realize what you are actually buying.  Black is associated with professionalism so it would seem obvious when cooking for the in-laws, you would want to buy only the most sophisticated products to cover up for your cooking.  Am I right?

Organic products on the other hand, fresh from the farm, require a little more thought.  Understanding ingredients and not flashy labels are the answer to good chefs.  Don’t distract yourself with the words such as: ‘NEW’ or ‘LOW CAL’ for it is the physical product you must examine to determine if you like it or not.

Be smart when buying to get the wholesome goodness for your buck!
