To Bio or not?

"Hi girls, Recently I have been thinking a lot about the effect of the food we consume along with all the usual stresses and the environments we live in. This feeling that we are eating wrong seems to have strengthened even more lately after hearing about XXX and XXX. While no correlation can be made... I started slowly with buying only Bio milk a few months ago. Then stretched it to whatever other organic product I saw on the shelf that I needed. Just a couple of days ago, I was shopping for a whole chicken to roast. (Normally I buy all my meat and fish at the turkish store because they are ridiculously cheap and everything seems fresher.) So anyway, back to the chicken. I noticed the bio chicken sitting next to the ordinary chicken and it was 15 bucks instead of 5 bucks. I balked at that and promptly changed dinner plans. Ever since I have been wondering what those extra 10 bucks mean to me. Am I trading in a few dollars now for bigger problems later? Since I seem to have a lot of time in my hands :) I was just browsing around and came across this article and thought I should share it with you. I can't say that I am a convert, but I am leaning a little more to the organic side. As always, comments, opinions, insights are most welcome. http://www.theorganicreport.com/pages/321_the_ecology_of_pizza_part_1.cfm?searchterm=pizza Love, P" Since Priya refuses to take on my request to write a a guest blog, I thought the next best thing would be to plagiarise her emails. FYI - she did buy the chicken and it tasted great!!
