1.0 link 46751 <![CDATA[Organic Food a Detriment To Public Health]]> http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jeff-stier/organic-food-a-detriment-_b_46751.html You Are What You Grow. That's the title of Michael Pollan's most recent New York Times Magazine article. In it, he argues that the U.S. Farm Bill is a villain in our obesity crisis, especially for the poor. If only the government incented farmers to grow more broccoli instead of corn (and from corn, high fructose corn syrup), poor families would change their eating habits. Specifically, Pollan would like us all to eat more organic produce.

Is he right?...
