organic vs. local; the eco-kosher smackdown
turns out, it's all good. while i was hoping for a definitive answer from this feel-good article -- by the end of the article, i do actually feel good about myself and my consumer food shopping choices:
just as long as you don't buy your organic produce from walmart. chas v' chalila, that you should think of such a thing. pu pu pu!So what's my advice? Think about what you're buying. If you want local food, buy local. If you want organic, buy organic. The point is to make a conscious choice, because as we insert our values into the market, businesses respond and things change. There's power in what we do collectively, so is there any reason to limit it unnecessarily?
