Anyone grow veggies??

[Guest guest]

There has been much talk on the subject of dairy milk and which way

(if any) is the best way to go about getting it, along with what may

come with the milk and what the consequences might be..

 

Well, I was wondering if anyone grows their own veggies, fruits,

herbs, etc. It seems like growing them oneself can produce a tastier

food and perhaps be a bit of fun in the process. I was watching a

show on the foodnetwork (starring Lisa Loeb and Satriani)...well they

were at this wonderful shop and the clerk was explaining how the mass

produced fruits and such were designed to be uniform... of the same

shape, size, taste etc. He had these wonderful and naturally shaped

veggies...all different. Anywho, I know this is nothing new but I'd

be interested in knowing if those who grow any of their own food tend

to notice a difference in taste (less pesticides and so forth?).

 

On another note but about the same program (did I mention this

already). When the show first aired earlier this year, the intro had

Loeb introducing herself as a " vegetarian " who enjoys sneaking a piece

of bacon every now and again (or something to that nature). No big

whoop to me (her thang is her thang..strict/careful or not), but I did

find it unusual and it did give me the ole double-take action. This

just seemed a bit confusing to me, especially coming off of a network

involving food. As of late though, and a few episodes in, the intro

has changed to... " I don't eat meat " but enjoy sneaking a piece of

bacon (don't quote me . Viewer mail? PETA?
