What's a non-faithy, un-co-operative type like me . . .

. . . doing joining a faith-based food co-op?

Twenty-five bucks for seventy-five bucks worth of food (and no sales tax), that's what.

Granted, it has limited options.

But then, so does the free market. You can't go into Kentucky Fried and order a Big Mac, after all.

And maybe it will encourage me to eat some beans and carrots instead of Krispy Kremes and pork rinds.

And I can drop out any time I want.

The good thing is, you get a menu for the next month, so you can decide if you want to participate. You're not just stuck with food you don't like, like most cooperatives give you.

It's not welfare; anyone who eats is eligible to participate, and I don't *think* it's run by the government.

Got my first order today. It all looks like really good food. No out-of-date/damaged stuff at all. July's menu looks even better.

You can take a look at the closest participating church to you here, if it's something you might want to look into.

Come. Join the collective. Resistance is futile.

That's a heck of a deal, from the look of it.

Not a night-light bulb or petroleum jelly anywhere on the list, though.
