...and you'll have to change your standards for "best" to
include dirty, shriveled, unappealing produce with bugs
and high levels of minimally-tested "natural" fertilizers
and pest control agents.
Give me a nice juicy, plump, ripe, hydroponic greenhouse-
grown genetically engineered tomato any time. And it's
probably more healthful anyway. "Organic" food is just
a consumer scam like premium gasoline--an excuse to charge
more for a product that doesn't have any benefits.
