half a cow a year? im probably eating that a week.
I grew up in a hippy town in California, and I ate organic. But once I moved out here, it really hasn't been an option. I mean, some things at Costco we can get organic, but not all things, and we just can't afford it most of the time at our local grocery store (and they rarely carry it anyway). :( I am glad our meat is organic, at least!
From what I've read, organic meat really is better because there's some kinda rank stuff in the regular (I eat it all the time though.) With produce, you can always just wash it off.
I was talking to the pharmacist at the grocery store and she said that she was allergic to some medicine and she cooked a ham for Easter and there was so much residue in the ham that she went into anaphylactic shock!!
The animal is supposed to be off meds for a certain amount of time before slaughter but obviously that isn't a guarantee!
But ya know how that goes!! Paperwork gets screwed up or somebody fudges something for some reason...either accidentally or on purpose! :/
