Take me out to the ballgame . . .

In certain circles in which we travel, there has been a debate for some time about the meaning of organic. Does "organic" mean a new way of conceptualizing our food system, in which industrial agriculture is replaced by sustainable, local and regionial food systems that emphasize low-processed, healthy, whole foods and diets? Or does "organic" simply mean producing food in ways that require less nasty toxic chemicals to be spread all over the planet? For the latter folks, an organic Twinkie is progress, but for the former folks, a food revolution is the goal.

Looks like the Twinkie faction is winning.
