i love your characterization of yourself, aj. GGG I've been interested in the last ten years to see the fetishism that surrounded food....starting first in CA. What started at Chez Panisse and environs as a reasonable focus on fresh, locally-grown, with a minimum of fertilizers eventually morphed into organic uber alles, raw-only, etc. It's very similar to what we saw in the stock market bubble around the turn of the 21st century, and the recent RE debacle. I'm no fan of genetically-modified, chemically treated food. The best way to avoid it is to buy and prepare your own meals. A dirty secret of many hi fiber prepared foods is that the fiber is wood pulp. Yummy. Words like "natural" mean nothing. Even "organic" means little...unless a food has the green organic seal. Organic farming can be incredibly costly. I eat organic meats (nonorganic are treated prophylactically with antibiotics) and drink organic milk...but don't generally sweat the rest. A few simple rules: Buy foods with five ingredients or less. Follow Michael Pollan's 9-word edict: Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
