[MrFoodismylife]

Kale tastes bad says the fat guy... red herring.... no one claims that organics taste better... it about avioding toxic shit... waste of my time

@shakaama International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition study compared organic vs conventional diet in animals.Weight gain greater in organically fed rats, mortality lower at 9 weeks and incidence of degenerative diseases was lower. Lower mortality in organically fed rabbits. 2nd and 3rd generation rabbits from organcially fed parents had higher birth rates and more viable embryos. Infectious illnesses were less frequent in 2nd generation organically fed animals.

@mjribes A study in the journal Renewable Agriculture and Food Systems, based on 293 yield comparisons of plant and animal foods, showed that organic agriculture has the potential to feed the entire human population based on the amount of agricultural land currently in use.

@mjribes The UN/World Bank report"The International Assessment of Agricultural Science and Technology Development" which contained reports from 400 scientists, concluded that biotech(GM) crops had very little potential to alleviate hunger or poverty.

organic expert huh? and she gave that definition of organic? sounds like she's an FDA organic expert, and NOT an organic expert.

Secondly organic has nothing to do with what she is talking about, it has everything to do... and this is where the population has been sold down the river... with the nutritional value in the food *GASP* It is supposed to be raised in such a state that the ground is revitalized... that loses money however, since you need a season to let the ground cool off. :(

this guy is stupid- food is not meant to taste like it does- real food isnt huge, super sweet- super tasting- food is engineered to taste differently- this is achieved by over feeding- over fertilizing- over salting- over sweetening- adding artificial flavors,etc- of course the guys food is going to taste better- its full of fat, salt, and sugar.

I'm totally against most kinds of pesticides - they're bad for the environment. However, I'm totally for GM (nucleotide enriched) foods. Anything else is food snobbery. I mean half of the world is now starving and organic-crazy people are OK with using double the arable land to produce organic food, than what would be used for GM crops. That's just plain immoral!!
