    It's sickening to see what's going on with the World's food supply knowing that even if 99.999% of the population was against they'd just do what they want like they do with practically everything else.

    There's a quote  somewhere on a wall at i think its the Brooklyn Museum,by Thoreau or Emerson (or someone like them)to the effect of (and its not the exact wording but)

    "What's the point of building a beautiful house if you don't have a habitable planet to live on?"

    Thanks for posting this Steve.

    All the foods that I prefer are on the dirty dozen side of the list so I am grateful that we live in an area that has numerous local organic food resources.  When our family has considered moving to other locations, the first thing I would always check was how close we would be to a healthy food resources. Also, I only eat certified humane so it gets even more complicated.  ~ Cynthia

    I'd heard of the Dirty Dozen,

    but not the Clean 15, so thanks for posting!   I'm going to jot these down and stick them on the fridge.   I'm all for healthy eating, just so long as I can stretch the definition of "healthy" to include gin.  Which I always drink with some lime, so...VITAMIN C.

    Cheers!  AA

    Somehow my sign-off there, combined with my initials, gives me a funny feeling...
