I doubt that people who buy REAL organic food will go to buy it at Wal-Mart or will trust the "certification" from U.S.D.A..

It's akin what happened in mid/late 60s, when dressing like a beatnik became commonplace. That officially ended the beatnik generation. .....it just wasn't cool anymore.

Some fresh organic stuff such as strawberries and tomatoes tastes better .

Mostly because it is grown locally.

Organic processed food is mostly a rip-off.

Organic food will soon be available to the tens of millions of Americans who now cannot afford it — indeed, who have little or no idea what the term even means.

Talk about condescending. But do I expect any less from the NYT?

Organic foods are just as tasty as the regular stuff.

So I buy whatever is cheapest.

As one who is using diet as "complementary medicine" to fight cancer, eating organic food has nothing to do with being "elite".

I pick and choose. If the organic is not horribly overpriced and looks more appealing than the non-organic, highly processed, chemical laden stuff, I go with the organic. I figure it can’t hurt. After all I put the high-test gas and best oil in my car. Don’t I want to do the same for my engine?

I recently saw a piece written by a student at MIT in which the kid said that she's convinced that shopping at a place like Whole Foods is *not* about eating healthy foods but,rather,about the conspicuous display of affluence.

With all the Range Rovers and Porche SUVs I see in the parking lot of the Whole Foods market near me,I think she's on to something!

We enter a day when organic foods become mainstream, and those who eat what they eat to be righteous will find a way to differentiate what they eat from what the masses eat.

I shop sometimes at organic type food stores. I have some products I really like, and they sell some stuff in bulk.

I know what A. Pole means about good bread. I've baked my own from time to time, (but I do often use more elaborate recipes than the one recommended, occasionally including things like milk or eggs or chopped nuts or other good stuff).

But there are people who are unhappy that these things might be going mainstream. Why?

Interesting the psychology of that particular tidbit.

I don't know which "food" product is more absurd: Kraft "singles" or "organic Cocoa Puffs."

...organic Cocoa Puffs and Oreos...

Heaven forbid you have any fertilizer or pesticides in your Cocoa Puffs or Oreos. That might make them less nutritious.
