It seems to me that he makes some valid points. It is nice to have
fresh fruit out of local season, but often, in my experience, it is
not of high quality. I hate that family farms are being forced out of
existence by multi-nationals. Once they are completely in charge, see
how high food costs go. I make an effort not to put any chinese
imports into my mouth. They obviously have few or no qualms about
food safety.
