I've started a petition asking the National Restaurant Association's member restaurants to provide fresh, raw, ORGANICALLY GROWN vegetables and fruits in salads in restaurants, and I need your help to get it off the ground.
Will you take 30 seconds to sign it right now? Here's the link:
http://www.change.org/petitions/national-restaurant-association-provide-fresh-raw-organically-grown-vegetables-and-fruits-in-salads-in-restaurants
Here's why it's important:
We who are signing this petition want to eat organically grown vegetables and fruits, because conventionally grown ones are loaded with toxins from pesticides and herbicides, toxins that cause disease. We want restaurants to offer more raw vegetable salads with organically-grown ingredients, and organically-grown fruit in fruit salads. When a restaurant makes a commitment to offer (more) organically-grown produce, that restaurant will expand its customer base to include a lot more people.
For those of us not lucky enough to live near raw vegan restaurants, if conventional eateries near us at least have organic fruits and vegetables on hand, we'll be able to have something to eat when we dine out with non-raw-vegans.
The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has a downloadable Wallet Guide to Pesticides in Produce that restaurants can use as a guideline. The EWG issues a new, updated one every spring.
You can sign my petition by clicking here.
Thanks!
