Food and why it costs so much


In our house we get our idea about food and the importance it holds in our life from three sources (and of course, our own taste buds): the Feingold diet, the 100 mile diet, and the movie "Food Inc." Food that is free from pesticides, genetic alterations, growth hormones, antibiotics, and e-coli is not only DIFFICULT to find, it is expensive. Why? I dunno. But we are committed to good food for many different reasons. The most important one, as well as the simplest, is that it just tastes better.


  • If organic farming is the natural way, shouldn't organic produce just be called "produce" and make the pesticide-laden stuff take the burden of an adjective? ~Ymber Delecto

  • The belly rules the mind. ~Spanish Proverb

  • How do pesticides know when to stop killing?--Author unknown

  • You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces- just good food from fresh ingredients.--Julia Child

  • You aren't what you eat, you're what your food eats--Author unknown
