  No thank you to chinese food

  Is'nt there something inherently wrong with eating food that was grown in China when you live in say New York? Mass produced "organic" is missing the point. Jane Goodall had a good term for organics grown by major corporations like Kraft--shallow organic. They may not be spraying pesticides or using chemical fertilizers but they are still mono-cropping and using wasteful irrigation systems. Buy local and do what makes sense.
