I agree that local food is good, but I cannot agree with your statement that "what the uneducated masses don't know will not hurt them." The cigarette companies said that same thing... ;)

no i dont want to pay the extra dollars for just fruit and vegetables grown from the ground.

Are you a drunkard? Nobody says that.Of course...healthy people that have BRAINS do.

No, because it costs so much more, and does not offer any extra nutritional value. I know that is most cases it is better for the environment, so to make up for it, I try to buy local foods!

Nope - it's too expensive. My relatives are all farmers and we get a freezer-full of fresh sweet corn and cucumbers right off the vine. Talk about flavor! You don't know what you're missing until you've had fresh-picked veggies. Grocery store stuff (organic or not) doesn't come close.

That is so true! It is a food trend! What is "hot" right now!
