(LivingWhole.org) I cannot count the times I’ve been given grief over eating organic or the times someone has turned their nose up at me because I refused to purchase, eat, or look at a product that didn’t have an organic label. I guess it’s only fair. My idea of fun is hitting up a grocery store the day before a big storm (that ultimately never happens) to gawk at the shopping carts full of survival necessities like cinnamon rolls, Mt. Dew, t.v. dinners, Lucky Charms, and brownies (because we can’t survive without brownies). Despite the fact that I know what’s coming, it gets me every time. I still cannot figure out how the human body can survive on nothing but hot dogs (which is closer to dog than pork if we’re being honest).

When I’m feeling very adventurous, I hang around one of the inner isles waiting for someone to ask me why my cart is filled with green leaves and #9 PLU codes. They know I don’t belong there. (I’m like the lone box of Kraft Mac n’ Cheese someone discarded in the produce section.) In the Midwest, people are all to eager to educate me on the stupidity of organics. We are surrounded by cornfields after all. So, I’ve had to learn to hold my own, solidify my position, and come back with an argument that beats the “you only eat organic because it’s cool” line that follows me everywhere. Sure, eating organic is cool but it goes far beyond that. Let me break it down for you.
