Today, many consumers expect to find fruits and vegetables of their choice on the shelves of their local supermarket around the year. Often, food travels many kilometers to reach destinations where it cannot be harvested locally at the time. The Doctrine and Covenants counsels to eat “every herb in the season thereof, and every fruit in the season thereof.” While not a strict religious law to Latter-day Saints, a seasonal, local diet reduces the waste of fuel and prevents pollution significantly.
