10 good reasons to prefer saison
- Taste -
Definitely one of the most important reasons to prefer saison! During the season, vegetables are at their best. They are juicy, colorful and ripe. The taste has not suffered from long storage or transport. Different varieties of seasonal vegetables are also often available, which means a wide spectrum of tastes.
- Ecology -
Producing plants during their natural growing season basically requires less energy, such as light and heat. The environmental emissions caused by the transport and storage of vegetables produced nearby are also lower. Of course, domestic natural seasonal delicacies such as mushrooms and berries should be preferred. They are top-quality local food, the cultivation of which requires no external energy at all.
- Affordability -
Vegetables that are in season are often cheaper than vegetables that are not in season due to the larger supply and lower production costs. By favoring the season, you save your wallet.
- Freshness -
In an ideal situation, the vegetable comes directly from the field to the table without intermediate storage. In addition to the taste, storage weakens the nutrient content of vegetables. Most vegetables develop nutrients until they are picked. A vegetable picked raw from the other side of the world and delivered to Finland therefore contains significantly fewer nutrients than a control that grew nearby and was brought fresh directly to the dining table. According to research, fruits that have grown and ripened slowly on the plant are the healthiest.
- Versatility -
Most of the domestic vegetables we eat consist of less than ten different vegetables. By eating according to the seasons, the diet is automatically diversified and new vegetables become available all year round. We get to get to know new flavors and learn new ways to prepare food from versatile fresh vegetables.
- No additives -
Fruit sold raw may be treated to improve attractiveness. Seasonal vegetables are at their best and attractive as they are. Vegetables produced during their natural growing season can be produced with less use of fertilizers and pesticides. By favoring the season, you reduce the load on your body and the environment with these substances.
- Diversification of supply -
By favoring the seasons, our consumption behavior always makes the offer more versatile. This results in vegetable producers being able to sell their products exactly when they are at their best. As demand increases, it becomes possible for producers to diversify their selection. By buying seasonal vegetables, the selections in the fruit and vegetable sections of stores expand and get more variety.
- Less waste -
When we learn to use vegetables according to the seasons, stores do not have to maintain large stocks of each vegetable throughout the year. Our demand better meets the farmers' supply. Shopkeepers can rely on the sales of seasonal products and out-of-season vegetables can be purchased less. In this case, there is also less waste.
- Compensating for unhealthy choices -
Vegetables, fiber-rich grains and fruits reduce the inflammatory response to a meal. Continual eating of the same foods has been suggested as part of food sensitivities. By favoring the seasons, you should eat constantly changing and versatile food.
- Valuing food -
By focusing our attention on food production, we learn to value food as well as its production process and producers more. By trying different varieties, we notice how amazingly different flavors and nuances can be hidden in even our everyday food ingredients, like, say, in the spectrum of tomato varieties.
