organic food
I'm not convinced. It seems to me that the supermarkets are taking foods that have always been 'organic' and selling them at twice the price with a different label. My local ASDA's organic veg is identical to its 'non-organic veg - which is to say it doesn't look anything like the malformed and dirty veg you pull out of the ground.

And, of course, 'organic' can mean anything they want it to. Tomatoes grown in a nutrient-rich vacuum in a hydroponic laboratory in Spain are organic because they are an organism. Fish reared in a tiny cage in a sewer in Bangladesh are organic because they are not genetically engineered. The weirdest thing I've seen is organic honey - pity the poor guy who has to chase every individual bee to see where it's getting its pollen from....

ASDA?
I thought you were something of a gastronome? What are you doing shopping in a supermarket that lines the pockets of Sharon Osbourne? I thought you'd have favoured Waitrose for the basics dah-ling.

Oh shit I've just realised I shop at Tesco therefore I partly paid for the current Spice Girls advert, well, one fifth of one of pouting posing stick bint Beckham Spices' bottles of fake tan, I apologise.

As for organic food, I reckon they leave just don't wash the veg, there you go it must be organic, it's got soil on it.

Gastronome's choice
ASDA for staples, but I go independent or Waitrose for my fine ingredients. You just can't get good salami at ASDA.
