I read Watercress was the most nutrient dense vegetable in the 1990's.

Watercress is delicious. But you have to know where it came from. It grows in water and is farmed in ponds. Like all foods raised in farm ponds the ponds can get polluted due to run off, and salmonella can also be a problem. But I love the stuff, a great additive to salads, gives it some zest. I just rinse it well in a salad spinner.

I have the Environmental Working Group “clean 15 and Dirty Dozen” list taped to the side of my fridge. So I know what needs to be organic.

They also test water quality in certain cities. On a scale of 1 - 9, with 9 the worst, ours is a 9 and they don’t even know we have lead in the pipes. I refill gallon jugs at Natural Market. Other stores have those water machines s too, but they add certain minerals that I-don’t really want. Costs me 29 cents to refill a jug and that’s all my cat and I drink,

As for instant coffee, I buy two: the organic regular and decaf Safeway brand. My cardiologist says I can have two cups of half-caf because that equals one cup in his opinion.
