    Couldn’t imagine that max cancer patients from India are from regions like Kerala or Punjab – which are considered agriculturally healthy etc…

    Few of my punjabi colleagues were confirming and telling horrible stories about the Cancer Train ( BHATINA TO BIKANER)

    I had missed this episode btw. So commenting now.

    In India there is a need for regulation but in US where you have regulation, it should be left to consumer.

      I was about to post this but found you already posted it

      Here is a anti organic food post from New York Times.

      I don’t know about the healthy part but I think organic food definitely tastes better.

        well, I have friends who used to say Indian vegetables taste better because it is organic (Tomatoes in US never taste like one in India). As you know Indian foods have so much insecticides/pesticides. The point is, it is in mind. I do read labels and buy stuff. Yesterday I was at Whole Food and prices are outrageous. Even a non-organic salad platter is $30 which is like $10 in normal grocery stores. I think we can be smart and pick and choose where even normal food is regulated

          Tomatoes from Farmers Market also don’t taste like the ones from India.

          I used to never like any fruits (Apples, Bananas) in US bought from Harris Teeter or Walmart but the organic ones from Trader Joes or Fresh Market are sweeter.
