If we are suffering from approximately 10% unemployment (in the United States) and only less than 1% of our population is producing our food, isn't it better to employ some of these people to grow and producer our food and quit subsiding these 1% producers?

@T3mporal: if anything this guy is pro-science. He's not falling in the fallacy of "science is wrong because it's changing", he's saying nutritional science isn't ready for drawing the conclusions we're drawing right now.

Respond to this video... Also, i buy free range eggs a whooping $4.25!! The regular ones are a little over a dollar!! A dollar!! how can this be right??!! If you have 2 growing kids, a wife and a husband making 35K a year, they're not gonna think twice about not only the violence that the chicken lived with, but with the chemicals teh chicken was pumped with and whose family is being fed this garbage!

I eat organic as much as possible - but if i were dirt poor and ill informed, i wouldn't be able to!! I don't make a huge amount, but even i feel the 'wow!' when i get to the checkout at the health food store. Organic beans are $3+, regular Goya are $1.50, an organic cauliflower is close to $7, a regular one (with pesticides) is about $2. This is almost 5 dollars more for just 2 items! So, although people who CAN afford to MUST buy organic, what about people who can't afford it?

Unlike smoking, People MUST EAT! So take back control of your eating. Make balanced home cooked meals that are low in salt, sugar and fat. Eat a pound of vegetables a day from food that is well grown.

Buy Organic or R.G.B.H. free Milk from cows that have not been shot up with growth hormones and that are grass feed. Grass feed beef and grass fed chickens. Animals eating grass in a pasture have benefits. Make a decision to be a conscious eater.

@T3mporal You know, there isn't much to say besides the fact that you are just stupid. Everything I had to say has already been written in other reply comments so really, all that's left is that you're just stupid.
