I try to eat organic foods because I don’t want to ingest man-made chemicals or growth hormones...

Hmmm... Not seeing the evil in man-made chemicals as opposed to 'nature made' ones. A chemical is either good or bad for you, doesn't matter where it got made. Cobra venom is not a man-made chemical but I doubt you'd want to ingest it.

My digestive system does a pretty decent job of sorting out food from non-food. I haven't been sick in years.

Needless to say, I won't eat anything that is labelled 'Organic' unless there's no other choice. The organic label is a political statement. All food is organic. What I want is cheap food that tastes good and that has plenty of nutrients in it.

Many years ago a scientist was asked what people did before artificial fertilizers. His answer, “They died younger.”

You seem pretty sure of that. How do you know? ‘cause there’s only one way to tell for certain...

Ah, nevermind, now that I think about it I don’t really want the details.
