A bit of irony
Jun. 4th, 2009 07:04 amI was in Herdsman Fresh yesterday, buying veggies and fruit... and smoked trout, and a goat blue cheese...
Anyway, I bought bananas. Both the regular and organic bananas were the same price ("Eco" bananas, with the wax tips were $2 a kilo more - I wonder what the difference between an organic and Eco banana is).
Anyway, in the end I bought the regular bananas. I would have bought the organic ones, but they were packaged with plastic and polysterene! Go figure.
I'm not sure which has the more enviornmental impact, but I didn't have a huge amount of time to consider it as I was on my lunch break.
