Hi, Alex! I know what you mean about the cost of this way of eating; however, the reduced medical expenses should more than cover it, and feeling great is priceless. I buy tasty Alaskan salmon (canned) from Trader Joe's (Trader Joe's brand). Also some very good real (two layer) sardines packed in salmon oil (King Oscar brand). Trader Joe's is a budget gourmet/specialty food store. I understand that they do special purchases, so if you see something you like, get it--it may not be there next time, especially if it's featured in their Fearless Flyer. These fish items seem to be in stock all the time. They're salty, so I drain the juice and give it to my cats. Seems to me I saw Omega-3 eggs the last time I was there. There are a couple of stores in New York state: www.traderjoes.com/locations/index.asp The #1 natural foods store chain in the U.S. is Whole Foods. We don't have one here in Southern Arizona, but they are highly recommended on the Celiac List. There may be some in New York: http://www.wholefoods.com/company/locations.html The #3 chain (#2 is TJ's) is Wild Oats. They sell Coleman's beef and lamb, which are grain-finished, but supposedly natural--no antibiotics, hormones, etc. Ditto for the Rocky chickens. I buy organically grown Omega-3 eggs from them. Their locator is here: http://www.wildoats.com/app/cda/oat_cda.php?pt=StoreLocator&PHPSESSID=6e29b259948fb10f89bd8141461db6a2 (You'll have to paste this in your browser.) Here is a list of free-farmed meats in New York state. They raise mostly pork; only one raises beef and one other one raises chickens. Maybe they are convenient to you: http://www.freefarmed.org/stores/ny.htm Getting into a food co-op can help cut costs. Here's a site listing co-ops across the U.S. and Canada, plus a few other countries: http://www.greenpeople.org/healthfood.htm My husband and I joined CostCo and bought a nice GE 5 cu.ft. chest freezer at a price that more than covered the cost of our membership. Something to consider. I don't buy any of my food there. My husband, who couldn't care much less about his diet, says the meat there is good, but it's definitely commercial beef. I buy all grass-fed from a friend on a ranch for myself. I hope this helps. Jane Southern Arizona, USA - where I've already had to turn on the air-conditioning this year
