Guest guest Posted January 17, 2002 Report Share Posted January 17, 2002 Aha! So, I'm not alone when I cast those sidelong, surreptitious glances at the contents of other people's shopping trolleys, then? I can't believe all of the utter crap that people will buy. How do they survive/subsist on such diets? Also, I must concur with the assessment that organic fruit and veg is well worth the extra cost. I have an organic box delivered weekly. At £10.50, it's chockfulla' goodness and I feel that it's money very well spent. xxk@xx Leanne Daharja Veitch [daharja] 16 January 2002 22:22 vegan-network Re: [100% veg*n ] Re: obsessive weirdos Hi, I have to agree with the cost consideration re organic vs processed foods. Although organic foods are certainly more expensive than non-organic produce, both are a helluva lot cheaper than processed foods. I'm often amazed at the supermarket when I see a person ahead of me buying nothing but processed crap and animal products, and how much it costs! You only have to look at the price difference between raw potatoes and potatoes chips (Lays) to see how price increases with processing. As does fat, sugar & salt content, as an aside.
