Weekly Reading #5

Topic 1

I was unable to watch the video, it wouldn't play on my computer for some reason :(.


Topic 2

Wow! I never thought of looking at organic food from a business perspective.
I was always under the impression organic food was pesticide free.
Though I found this article very interesting, I also sounded very biased to me. Are they saying a McDonalds hamburger patty is on par with a $15 certified organic gourmet grain-fed free-range prime cut hamburger patty from Whole Foods?

Next time I am in the garden, I will think about the enefits of home-grown food.

Are the Canadian organic standars similar?


Topic 3

Though I believe that pasturized milk is the way to go, raw milk should still be siold, as long as it has a proper warning label.
Maybe the thing to do, is just to limit the sale of raw milk in super markets, but allow farmers to sell it.
I think the law restricting the transport over state lines is reasonable, though it sounds quite silly.

Next time we are in the garden, I will think about the repercussions of food restrictions.

Is raw goat milk legal?
