Quick Salady Snack

Took less than 5 minutes to prepare.
I chopped up some snap peas and pickled carrots (I made about 1.5 months ago). Added some spicy Sriracha sauerkraut (I made about 3 months ago). Feta cheese. Roasted almonds (I try to always have a jar of these) and olive oil. A thick slice of sourdough bread.
Overall, this snake felt and tasted pretty good.

I acknowledge:
-the snap peas, I don't know where they came from other than a bag that says "Kroger"
-the carrots, grown with love and care from the Krishna Farm in Millcreek (thanks friends!)
-the cabbage from Peterson Family Farm, (Thanks Luke!)
-the almonds I enjoy despite the conflict I feel about the environmental impact they embody
-the olive oil from an unknown place
-the feta cheese from an unknown animal and place
-the wheat from King Arthur, that I fermented into a delicious sourdough loaf

Why do I post this? Central to my quest for a happier and ethical life is examining my approach to eating. I'm attempting to eat as ethically as I can, and I've found that ethical eating usually overlaps with healthy eating.
