Today, we had parent teacher conferences at work. Our hospitality committee (made up of parents) is always very generous and provides lunch/dinner on our long day. In the past, I was never concerned about what they would be serving us. However this time, I was a bit nervous because I wouldn't be able to know of there was sugar in what they were serving.
The spread looked amazing: shredded beef, chicken, pinto beans, ground beef, Spanish rice, tortillas, tortilla chips, and toppings. There were also some delicious looking desserts! As I turned over each package of tortillas and chips, I could feel a pair of eyes watching me. My coworker asked what I was going and I explained to her that I gave up sugar for Lent. I've discovered that one doesn't often find someone else reading labels. (I've noticed this at the grocery store, too.) I saw this one the Food Renegade website as a way to start thinking about changing the way we eat.
