\"Eating_banana\"<\/a> My now teenage son thinks I’m crazy. The feeling is mutual. His recent comment was “Why are you always talking about organic. Pesticides aren’t bad for me.”<\/p>\n

Well, I am no longer a teenager, and therefore am not immortal. So I did a survey of my breakfast this morning to see how “pure” I was, even though I know that roughly 25% of organic food has pesticide residues.<\/p>\n

– High fiber cereal (Organic, Whole Foods Brand)
\n– Fair Trade banana (Organic, Wild Oats, next door to Whole Foods)
\n– Raisins (Food co-op ordered with friends from Waldorf School)
\n– 1% milk (Organic, Wild Oats)
\n– Dollop of yogurt (Organic, mostly biodynamic, Seven Stars Farm)<\/p>\n

Wow. Sounds so yuppie. But I was pleased despite the fact that most the ingredients traveled a long way to my bowl (which, by the way, had some miles on it since it was carried back from Japan where my in-laws live). I took some consolation in our Tuesday and Thursday breakfasts, as the eggs we eat are laid just across the Ohio River.<\/p>\n

What did you have for breakfast?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
