In Costa Rica?

So there's farmers markets. Where I live, there are three farmers markets a week. And I can talk to the farmers and I can say, is this organic?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think you do the best you can with the opportunities you're given. So for instance, in Austin, which might be a little easier than most, it's not exactly a food desert. There are Whole Foods in Austin. There's Central Market in Austin.

Yeah, I know, but it's better than a regular Safeway, I think, right? I'm just using it as an example. Whole Foods is okay. I'd give Whole Foods mid-rating.

Maybe five. Oh, yeah, three out of five. I was going to say five out of ten, yeah. Whole Foods is probably three out of five. But look, a lot of things we're going to talk about in this podcast are going to seem overwhelming for people. I just want to provide information. My goal is just to provide information that's as digestible and usable. And I don't want perfect to be the enemy of good.

So yes, the ideal thing is meet farmers in your area, go to farmers. If you can't do that, you don't have time. I do think that the return on investment, the ROI on going to a grocery store and cooking your own food is massive. for most of us. And if someone can afford to have an assistant go shop for them or to have a chef, great. That's probably a 0.1% of all of us who can afford that.

But I think all of us need to understand that life is about choices. And I see this as an entrepreneur now. I'm a traditionally trained doctor, but now I think about ROI. Like you, I think, what's the best use of my time? What is the return on investment?
