"Beets In The Hood"

Quote
"Everybody just says,'Oh I can't grow organic food cheaper', but we don't have to pay $10 a pound for food-I charge $2 a pound and make money. You could be a millionaire."

Question
If someone were to grow their own crops to sell, wouldn't they need to spend money on maintaining a healthy garden? Possibly more money than they would receive.

Comment
I think that it is a good idea to grow your own food. It can somewhat save money and the experiences of growing your own food can teach you a lot.

Quote
"I was so surprised that those diseases that we take for granted as what will kill us- heart disease, cancer,diabetes-were virtually unknown 150 years ago, before we started eating this way."

Question
If someone ate something 150 years ago and died from it, didn't anyone wonder why and investigate?

Comment
150 years ago, no one knew too much about the diseases that were contained within some foods. Still not all foods carry a life threatening disease. In fact there are some that help to prevent these ailments.

"Veg-o-might"

Quote
"Meat is such an obvious delivery device for protein that bodybuilders often use the two words interchangeably."

Question
Is meat the biggest distributor of protein?

Comment
I agree that meat is indeed an excellent source of protein. But eating too much surely cannot be good.
