So I was driving around yesterday and I saw this boy.
The boy was sitting on the curb next to an alley cat with a bag of M&Ms in his hand.
Then out of the blue, the boy eats and M&M and bites the shit outta the alley cat.
Then he walks about 3-5 five feet away and sits back down.
The alley cat comes over and the boy eats another M&M and bites the cat again.
This time he moves about four feet away.
Alley cat comes over and the boy eats another candy and bites the cat.
Then he moves another 3-5 feet away.
By this time I'm kind of disturbed so I roll down my window.
I said "Hey boy. What the fuck are you doing"?
He replied, "Playin' truck driver".
I say "What the hell do you mean playing truck driver"?
The boy looked at me funny and said "Playin' truck driver".
I said again "What do you mean"?
The boy said "Well sir I'm poppin' pills, eating pussy, and movin' on down the road".

When I go to the store and see some "organic" product, I don't bother looking twice at that stuff.

I don't care. I'm going to buy the good stuff because I'm not a nut freak. This organic stuff reminds me of how stupid vegetarians are (no offense).
Organic produce bought fresh from a market is way better than your average grocery store fair. I also like the fact that you know it wasn't coated in six different kinds of preservatives and pesticides just so it can make the trip from Califuckinfornia. That and I like that my future illegitimate children won't have tails.

The pesticides are what gives fruit and veg flavour, though.

Wasn't it the organic jalapenos that were ripe with ecoli? :spliff:

perhaps but farmers markets are hard to find down here in this wasteland. plus most ppl like the 1 stop shop convenience of the local grocery store.

the only place my fam has bought organic stuff from is trader joe's. everything in that store is delicious

And what kind of tomatoes were fast food restaurants not allowed to sell you this summer. Pretty sure they were organic. Or those bags of salad in the stores, how many people died from that? I bet those were organic too. I could go on for days. Truth is organic or local produce is miles better than grocery store stuff. It's cheaper because it isn't hauled across the country and your far less likely to catch Chinese Barbie Doll Syndrome. Chain grocery stores are one of the biggest rip offs in this country, they ship shit for miles so they have to raise prices and if you want something that won't give you cancer in ten years they triple the price. So your average Americans assume that organic produce is somehow worse than the other stuff (even though I will agree that the label is now a marketing tool which is mostly due to the current administration). It's actually kind of ridiculous.

Oh, local produce is the way to go without a doubt. That reminds me that I need to frequent the Friday farmers market in State College much more. The local sellers really do have the best stuff, which makes the crap sold at the store looked like... crap.

Picked up some local peppers the other day... absolutely delicious.

You live in Dallas, gateway to west Texas. Take a trip to the country and hit up some roadside vendors. It's not a case of local food not being nearby, but a case of Americans being to lazy to find it. I found a local slaughterhouse when I was in Baltimore that saved me lots of cash on beef, fish, etc.

Didn't know you were such an environmentalist, E.
My concentration is in Resource Management. I've taken 4 Ag classes for both traditional and sustainable agricultural practices. But don't lump me in with those radical devils that tie themselves to trees and ram whaling ships.

I guess I need to diversify my ontology.

I've heard good things about the State College market. The best thing is the price. In Charleston we never shop at the grocery store for produce. There are even a few farmers who have adopted greenhouse techniques so they can sell year round.

Man, the worst tomatos I've ever had were from Wal-Mart. WOW. Even if they just put them out there they're rancid.
