Omnivore's Chapter 9

In chapter 9 of omnivore's.... I got a few different ideas from it. First, I liked how the owner and founder of the organic Cascadian Farms corporation stated that, "Everything eventually morphs to how the world is." When he said this he was talking about how his strictly organic and independent organic farms slowly but surely conformed and began doing business exactly the same way as the big non-organic agra-business corporations. It just goes to show that when a business starts to make it big... I think that people start to care only for making money than their original values that made them want to grow organicly in the first place...... this is reinforced when Pollen said that when producers realize that consumers only care about the "number" or price of the item, they start to only thing about yield. I am a not a supporter of either organic or in-organic food one way or the other, I am one of those people that want the best tasting, looking, and price on food.
