I agree with you that the TYT show lacks an in-house science expert, as their thoughts on health and the environment are usually entirely superficial.

I also agree with you on the subsidy question, but there's one thing you're completely mistaken about.

Some people just like the taste of salt. You don't have have to rant about quality cooking based on Cenk, or me, stating an opinion on taste. While I'm all for quality cooking, some quality cooking just needs some bloody salt.

Also, don't buy organic tomatoes. The factory-farmed ones, are, guess what, also organic. As long as you can digest it, you don't have to worry about carbon friggin' chemistry.

Reminds me - I heard somewhere that if we could make food using right-handed amino acids (or is it left? I can't keep track), we could essentially eat enormous amounts of it, it would have a similar taste, and we would never digest any calories. Or maybe we'd get a horrible reaction to it and die. I heard that too. Never mind.

Bottom line is: Any food that needs to reassure you it's organic, you might wanna rethink your choices. I mean, it's kinda like selling "urine-free coke". It's damning with faint praise, that's all I'm saying.
