Day 10

Breakfast - 07.00 - Porridge
Lunch - 14.00 - Pasta with beans, onion and cheese
Tea - 19.30 - Sausage and chips with pitta bread.

Today I went to London for the day, I took a packed lunch with me as obviously I wouldn't be able to grab something easily. I did take a look around a couple of posh take out places which advertised organic in the window, sadly none of them had any solely organic products but things containing organic produce. For example 'Organic chicken, pesto and rocket sandwich' *Organic chicken only It's sad that this is the case I am sure there are places out there which are truely organic.

Additionally my hosuemates had a takeaway tonight, from our campus take away Papa Si's. It smelled pretty good and under normal circumstances I would have had some too. HOWEVER I have more will power than that and after washing a weeks worth of dirty dishes (I have been lazy lately) I cooked some nice sausage and chips.

I sparked a debate with a friend this evening about what is organic? And what is free range? She's American and started to research for herself what the standards are in America. They are VERY different to those in the EU and generally are a lot worse. She's discovered that there are no strict standards for free range or organic and seems pretty disapointed with the lack of information within easy access on the subject for her. http://www.certifiedhumane.org/index.php?page=standards Is the only place with any real information and also the only none profit organisation she found.
