This one has to do with Simple Truth products, marketed by Krogers. I suppose the Simple Truth PRODUCE is edible (and maybe some of the canned beans, Idk), since I would (usually) recommend organic. However, I say ALWAYS buy LOCALLY grown fruits and vegetables from your farmer’s market, if these are available. I’m going to take a leap of faith here and assume that YOUR farmers will have the same high standards that OUR local farmers do and grow organic, most of ’em. Anyway, back to the subject at hand.
Simple Truth. Is it? Really? I want food, not religion. And I want GOOD food. For everyone. So I’m here to warn you. DO NOT BUY SIMPLE TRUTH CONDIMENTS. Especially products like: soy sauce/tamari sauce; tahini; and the like. They suck out loud. The tamari is so truly awful that I’ve thrown the bottle out, rather than use it. I have no idea why they would even LABEL it tamari, as it bears no resemblance to tamari, other than being roughly the same color. It has little taste and will bring nothing to your dish. Ahem. After that little tirade, perhaps I shouldn’t get started on my opinion of their version of tahini. You can no doubt guess that it’s NOT GOOD. Lol. IF you wish to buy condiments and stuff, for the love of whatever deity or thing you hold dear, take my best advice and buy brands that are known to specialize in these products. If you like experimenting, try different brands. But stay away from this generic “we’ve got to be good because we say we’re organic” and we’ll try making EVERYTHING brand.
Look. In this day and age, most grocery stores, including Krogers, offer you a fairly wide variety to choose from when selecting your flours, condiments, baking products, snacks, and produce. What I’m saying is that you can usually do better than Simple Truth. And that’s the truth.
