Gummy Bears That Make You Think

Day 247.
Gummy Bears That Make You Think

Yesterday I had a moment while shopping that made me think about the fact that I want (and need) to consciously think about what I am buying. I was walking down an aisle where I saw a bag of gummy bears and absentmindedly put them in my cart. I took two steps and then looked at the back of the package...made in the USA? Not the ones I picked up at first. I backed up and found that right next to the more familiar name brand was this bag of gummy bears...

 

 
And these, sure enough were made in the USA...

And they are delicious!

It just made me stop and think that it's easy to incorporate American made products into our everyday shopping, but we do need to be aware and think to look more closely at the items we buy.
