Organic?




NPR recently covered the benefits of eating organic.  The scientific evidence? None.

Kids, when I buy organic, it's not about what I'm putting into my mouth.  My background makes me think about the women and men picking the vegetables and fruits.  At times I think about the animal welfare, and their conditions before slaughter.  And that's when I buy organic.  Although, if you're Steve King or  from Arizona, the animals probably have the edge.

    I Buy some things organic,many some not. I do think about animal welfare and try and let that guide my purchases, but it doesn't always.

    The stunning thing is that the books were banned in a program that was achieving improved student success rates.
