Organic and non-organic. Pretty stark contrast. Coincidentally, the people working in the organic/health stores look just as limp and dull.

It is a great market niche to exploit if you're into agriculture though. Premium prices for often substandard products - but the packaging is extremely important. High labor costs offset much of the profit in many crops, but there are plenty of opportunities to find the right ones for a small operation.

Those pictures are a pretty clear illustration. For one thing, groups of organic vegetables have rounded edges and cast a drop-shadow. I also see that organic vegetable don't come with garlic or ginger. The only good thing I can say about these organic veggies is that they aren't already cut open, like inorganic canteloupe and red cabbage.

From the pictures, it appears that the plants can tell wether the fertilizer came from a cow's rear end or a factory.

BTW, do they check the feed going into the front end of the cow?
