Clean Safe Organic Potatoes…Wrapped in Plastic

May 12th, 2010 - Gerald "Gerry" Pugliese

Yeah, that’s kind of funny – or kind of stupid. It’s hard to make out, but those are organic potatoes. Okay, that’s cool. But they’re wrapped in plastic.

Maybe the company thinks they’re protecting their yams from rubbing against their evil non-organic cousins with a powerful shield of petroleum-based plastic wrap. But either way, they dropped the potato – oops, I mean ball – with that faux pas.

Then again, how many of you pick through your organic produce in the supermarket and put them in those plastic produce bags? I think we all have. Eek!

  1. What were they thinking? Are they organic producers in it for the money or that it’s the right way to produce food? It’s very backwards, but did make me laugh!

  2. Is organic produce wrapped in plastic still organic?

    (hint: NO)
