It's Beginning to Bite
In these trying times, when buying ordinary food stuff can burn a hole in your pockets, comes the news
that can actually help us save some hard cash when we go out to shop the next time. According to a Stanford
University study, the first of its kind in the world, there is no evidence to suggest that there are more nutritional
benefits from expensive organic food than those grown by conventional methods. The researchers add that there
is no difference in protein and fat content between organic and conventional milk and the vitamin count is
similar in both types. The only benefit is that organic foods are not contaminated with pesticides but then before
you chew on that plate of organic okra with roti made from organic wheat, they are not 100 %pesticide free
either
In India, organic food has been growing at 20-22% and the export market is valued at Rs. 1,000 crore.
Obviously, the study is not good news for that sector and for people who are big on organic food. In India,
eating organic food is more of a style statement than due to health worries because the stuff is expensive. But
people who can do indulge in not only organic vegetables but even organic eggs laid by 'happy hens', who are
allowed to roam around freely whereas 'unhappy hens' are kept in coops. Then there are companies that have
installed music channels in their cow sheds and the milk from those sheds are sold at marked up price since it
has more nutritional value because the animals are happy thanks to lilting 24 x 7 music. We don't know yet any
farmer using music to improve his crop quality, but then you never know: plants are known to respond to music.
Why such pickiness about food? These days, the huge number of TV shows and articles that we see and read on
food provide bread and butter for the specialist. But instead of decoding food, it's sources and what has gone
into growing it, isn't it much better to you enjoy what's on the plate
