to All Whole Foodist- what's on your grocery list?

[healed01]

I'm trying to put together a great standard list to take to the grocery and health food store to build a healthy diet. Here are my staples so far. What are yours?

- CO xtra virgin
- hemp hearts
- veggies
- EVOO
- organic free run eggs
- cheese

I'm walking around my local supermarket in my mind now, picking things up in this order...

Fresh stuff:
Vegetables
Fruit
Nuts
Meat: Beef, lamb, pork, poultry
Fish
Bacon & sausage (not on my shopping list every week though)
Eggs

Inner aisles:
tinned tuna/mackerel/salmon
chopped tomatoes
mayo
salad dressing
olive oil
tea bags
coffee
herbs and spices
ground almonds

Back to the real food:
Cooked meats (I like a bit of ham sometimes, but again, not every week)
cheeses
cream
butter
yogurt

Edit: I know I'm not quite as strictly whole foods as some members here. I don't go for all organic for example, and I'll have a bit of sausage, ham, or bacon sometimes and a few tinned things. But I do make an effort to use as much fresh, unprocessed food as possible.

Well, lessee,

Here's some things that I do: I just went shopping yesterday for the moth so here's a look in my cart: PLUS I order from a food co-op, PLUS I get fill-ins from the health food store. This is just off the top of my head, I'm sure I'm forgetting a LOT!

I buy organic meats. When we can't buy in bulk from a locally-raised, we buy Coleman organic beef from the store.
The same with organic poultry (again with Coleman brand)
The same with organic eggs, only organic, free range
The same with salmon, only wild caught Alaskan, frozen or canned
The same with whole milk, organic only

I buy stevia for my sweetener.

I buy organic fresh veggies:
Mixed baby greens
baby spinach
romaine
broccoli
zucchini

I am growing my own organic veggies and culinary herbs in Earthboxes as well

Extra Virgin Olive oil
butter
organic virgin coconut oil
organic ranch dressing
Duke's mayo
Bragg's Sesame and Ginger dressing
raw almonds
raw organic cashews
organic golden flax seed, whole
organic almond butter
cheeses
Bragg's or Eden organic apple cider vinegar with "mother"
unsweetened cocoa powder
organic apples
organic strawberries
organic blue berries
organic full-fat plain yogurt
organic peanut butter
cream cheese

tamari
toasted sesame oil
organic garbanzo beans
