Canned Tomatoes
An endocrinologist won’t go near canned tomatoes -- the cans are lined with a resin containing BPA, and tomatoes are especially dangerous because their acid breaks the BPA down in dangerous amounts.
Conventional Beef
Conventional cattle are fed grain, corn and soy to make them fat, even though studies show that grass-fed beef is higher in important vitamins, minerals and heart-healthy, anti-inflammatory fats.
Microwave Popcorn
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) lines microwave popcorn bags, and when they are heated the compound, which has been linked to infertility, leaches onto the food.
Conventional Potatoes
Non-organic potatoes are heavily sprayed with herbicides, pesticides and fungicides -- many potato growers don’t eat the potatoes they sell, but instead they grow their own separate plots without all the chemicals.
Farmed Salmon
Farmed salmon are stuffed into pens and fed chicken feathers and pellets. A scientific study on fish contamination showed high levels of carcinogens such as DDT and PCBs.
Conventional Milk
Dairy cows are fed growth hormones to maximize milk production, which results in increased incidence of udder infection and pus in the milk.
Conventional Apples
Apples are heavily and frequently doused with pesticides -- pesticides that have been linked to Parkinson’s.

Redefining Roots [Episode 1] (Nice Cream Chicago) from A Sustainable Reality on Vimeo.
According to NBCs WBIR - Chanel 10 in Tennessee, the rumors of Sarah Palin's visit to the Tennessee Valley Fair, were fueled by a hoax post on a news blog. The rumor spread quickly and as far as Chicago where the artist J. Taylor Wallace caught wind of it and, left his Chicago home to get the "Palin-Head" Sculpture/Cooker titled "We're Havin' A Tea Pear-ody" to the fair in his home town in time for Sarah's visit. Unfortunately, the Palin-esque sculpture and Sarah Palin didn't get the opportunity to meet face to face this time. Perhaps in the two "Fierce" ladies will have more opportunities in the near future. With a better-than-expected reception at the Iowa State Fair, Sarah Palin has announced plans to visit fairs across the United States as the summer winds down. Palin denied speculation that the state fair tour was a precursor to a Presidential campaign, “That’s ridiculous,” Palin said. “I just like it when all the farm animals lick my hands, so I visit the animal barns and petting zoos at the fair each year.”
Tennessee Valley Fair representatives say Palin’s visit should have
little impact on the fair-going experience, other than removing Boyz II
Men from the entertainment schedule. A spokesperson for the fair
stated,”Palin wanted the stage on the night that they were scheduled,
but we don’t know what announcement she may have planned.”
