Farmers markets are usually locally grown and (depending on) the butcher your will get somewhat local meat. There is a lot that goes into their mission statement and philosophy. They give to local farmers, and concerned about the enviornment and sustainability, among other things. I don't doubt there is a difference in quality and nutritional value between the organic foods at Jewel and the ones at whole foods. You said you've never been in one so how do you know if it's not worth it?

I still don't understand how people are starving.

I'm sorry you're poor.

Farmers Markets are great, but you can't exactly go shopping there week-to-week for groceries, even in the summer. It's more like "stumble upon a select food" and then decide at that point to make that part of your meal.

Local does not equal organic. I have no idea what you're talking about wtih the locally grown meats and produce.

What's not to understand here? Organic grown farms produce much lower yields. That's pretty much it. In a world where billions don't have enough to eat we grow organics that do not produce the maximum capacity of the land. Simple.

That's going to be true for any farm. There are some stats out there that the US throws out about half of its food. We are already prodcing more than is consumed. There was a show on not too long ago about it...maybe the food network had it. Don't know if that is still going. Some people believe the pesticides and engineered foods are not good or more harmful. I don't know how strongly I believe that but I wouldn't discount it either.

Jerseys?

big fan using Seinfeld quotes!!!

Do they ever have an All You Can Eat Hot Dog Night there? Bigfan, I bet you get invited to that!

I bet he'd love all that big footlong glory up in his grill!

See ya in 168 hours

Whole Foods is a lot more exciting to go to than it is after you leave. My wife likes sushi and I don't so it's nice to go and I can eat pizza at the same table. However, when I leave I'm like "I just spent 22 dollars to get my own food and clear my own table to eat a piece of pizza and a 3 dollar green tea with 10 types of plant extract".

The sushi is reasonable and a huge lifesaver for me.

At least you got your caffeine fix, you fucking junkie!

Oh, BigFan! Relax, it's just a little friendly 'poking', if you'll pardon the expression!
