[blparent] Pregnancy and food- helpers pushing beliefs on you

[Kevin Athey]

Walmart does deliver some food stuff if you order it from Walmart.com
or if they won't deliver it to your home you can order it and have it
shipped to the store and then you just pick your order up from
costumer service rather than having someone go around with you
shopping. Also there may be many health food stores that carry what
your looking for with websites.
