omnivore's dillema
~

"...why are we essentially subsidizing high-fructose corn syrup when we have an epidemic of obesity?...

"we need to create a set of rules so that the produce aisle would be competitive with the junk food aisle....

"To think that this food is cheap is a failure to see all the costs involved. The real price is not reflected at the cash register, but in your healthcare bill, in your tax bills, or in your bills for bottled waters after the water supply has been contaminated by industrial chemicals...

"I was once told -- though I couldn't confirm this -- that if McDonald's gets just 25 unorganized calls or letters on a particular customer concern, the matter will get on the agenda at a board meeting."
