Rant #3 Organic Foods

This isn't really a complaint about any company in particular, it's just my view about the concept of organic food. I know that organic foods are suppose to be healthier for you because they don't use pesticides and preservatives. But you know what? I like pesticides and preservatives. Why? Because they kill pests and preserve my food! I am all for healthy, but it does me no good if the food only last as long as the car ride home from the market! People who eat only organic are constantly circling the grocery store the same way folks who drive those big gas-guzzling SUVs constantly circle the petro station. And they pay a premium for the privilege of doing so.

Now if you eat only organic, please don't send me any hate mail. I don't advocate that you stop. I am just saying for me, I will just stick with the conventional. I have been eating preservatives my entire life, and I seem to be ok. Besides, I have never known anyone to drop dead from eating really red tomatoes..........
