get mad, then feel better

Here's an inflammatory & bogus article in Foreign Policy on why organic food is elitist, contributes to world hunger, and generally ridiculous and a waste of your dollars.

And a nice rebuttal from Anna Lappe of the Small Planet Institute (her mother, Francis Moore Lappe, wrote Diet for a Small Planet in the 1971 - very important book in the food movement that connected eating to sustainability. AND she was a shareholder at the first farm where I apprenticed!).

Both are worth a read - checking up on the conversation people are having out there.
