You say tomAto, I say it’s probably genetically modified and covered in residual pesticides

If I buy a tomato it’s probably genetically modified and covered in residual pesticides. If it’s an organic tomato that is neither genetically modified nor covered in residual pesticides then it’s probably grown in Chile and a quart of jet (ship/truck) fuel had to be used in order to bring it to the US. If it’s not grown in Chile, but instead grown in the US – it’s probably grown on one of the giant super farms that belongs to an active supporter of Bush regime. If it wasn’t grown on a giant super farm that belongs to a Bush supporter, but instead it belongs to a small scale local farmer then it’s probably not organic. And if it is locally grown by a small scale organic farmer - then I probably cannot afford it (even if I can find where to buy it). If I decide to save some money and grown my own organic tomatoes on my porch, they will absorb all the fumes from the downtown traffic and will become as poisonous as if they were covered in residual pesticides. If I move to the suburbs to grow my organic tomatoes away from downtown traffic – I will be the only liberal for 100 square miles, surrounded by flag waving Southern Republicans and my children will grow up to be baseball playing, cow tipping rednecks.

So should I continue eating ecologically unsafe tomatoes or should I allow my children to become cow tipping rednecks?
