My thought of the day, hijacked from Jonathan Safran Foer
"Organic foods in general are almost certainly safer and often have a smaller ecological footprint and better health value. They are not, though, necessarily more humane. "Organic" does signal better welfare if we are talking about laying hens or cattle. It also may signal better welfare for pigs, but that is less certain. For chickens raised for meat and for turkeys, though, "organic" doesn't necessarily mean anything in terms of welfare issues. You can call your turkey organic and torture it daily." (Source:

Go on. Think about it.
