So the grocery store, here's what I got, remember, I'm not perfect and I'm tip-toeing into this, not diving head first. I also bought a variety of organic and reg. items. Until I can gather more research, or until I feel more comfortable with my purchasing abilities, and until we have access to an organic health food store that doesn't cost an arm and a leg - it's what I've got to do. If possible I did try to get unsweetened/plain/no salt varieties.

As you can see there's a lot of food, and it didn't cost as much as I thought it would. I actually found a good amount of "cheap" produce and fruits at Aldi. Who knew....
