How to avoid Supermarket/ Chains - Getting raw milk from farms, then make your butter, cheese, or yogurt if you have the time and energy ( yogurt is pretty easy ) - Getting olive and olive oil from Olive farms ( I think olive oil is the most important thing when it comes to cooking, I don't understand how some people can live without it ๐Ÿ˜‚ ) - Getting meat from butchers, knowing your local butcher is really important, you might getting the best piece every time you go. - Fresh veggies and eggs from weekly markets How's your practice ๐Ÿ‘€
One of my favorite cafes down the street can't be ordered online, you HAVE to go there IN PERSON ( in fact, most of the cafes here can't be ordered online), even though they have all the packaging ready. ๐Ÿคฏ I guess what they are really selling is the experience of sitting there and having conversations on top of the good coffee ( they even offered us tea for free sometimes ), cozy! And what the chains are really selling is convenience, thus average coffee but one-click order to door.

I love buying things directly from makers, and you built up trust over time:) e.g. I ordered two liters of olive oil this afternoon, and the producer asked me to pay later when I received them. ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿงก
