		<description><![CDATA[Some don&#8217;t want to hear this, but organic food isn&#8217;t always more pure or more tasty, even when sporting the USDA Organic label, a label that usually means a premium price.
A couple excellent articles have addressed the disconnect between reality and consumer perception &#8212; none better than a Wednesday piece in the Los Angeles Times, [...]]]></description>

Unfortunately, I could probably post an example from somewhere nearly every week and some weeks almost every day but this latest racist &#8220;joke&#8221; making the rounds among bigots is too egregious to ignore.
