The problem with so much of the organic foods is the cost - it costs about three times as much as the, um, inorganic kind. On that note, the expression "organic" does kind of make me laugh. The opposite is "inorganic" and we don't eat much in the way of inorganic things, except for salt. And, if you want to be really paranoid about it, as I sometimes am, even the organically grown stuff grows in soil that has no doubt been subjected to contamination of some kind, and is rained on by acid rain. I realize I'm going too far with this. I do try to buy organic whenever I can - you can find lots of it in Toronto but, well, it's expensive. Thinking of converting my entire backyard into a vegetable garden this year, but only if I can get someone with a bulldozer in to turn over the grass first! ===== Catherine Toronto ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
