I read labels, especially since I've been trying to cut out corn syrup and any hydrogenated oils that creep into every processed food on the planet.
I've also recently been working hard to buy local and organic, in that order. It makes no sense to ship organic products from the other side of the planet if you're trying to eat sustainably. Getting an every-other-week delivery from Pioneer Organics has helped immeasurably with that, as you can tweak your food order to reflect local considerations.
I think a lot more about my food in general than I used to, and while I used to be more of a price concious shopper than I am now I find that I eat and feel better if I'm concentrating more on the health value of what I'm buying.
