Organic questions
Name: Jackie
A couple of questions:
1. Why no North Yorkshire listing in shopping? There must be something out there.
Hi Jackie
We rely on readers and shop owners to contact us to let us know they're there. None of the contributors to this site currently live in Yorkshire. We therefore do not have access to local knowledge in that area unless people based there help us keep up to date on their area. Maybe you can help?
2. Could you have a home delivery listing similar to your shop guide as this would make finding food much easier for me.
This site is run for no profit. I think we're doing pretty well with so many shops listed without taking on board an equal number of new work to do. You're welcome to organise it if you want to ;)
3. The Food Standards Agency says that organic food is no better for you, doesn't have more nutrition and often doesn't have more pesticides. Are they lying?
My personal view is that they are lying. I have met Krebs, the head guy, and he gives me the heebees. It's a bit like WMD's - some people you trust are telling the truth, some people you don't trust. I trust the Soil Association are telling the truth about organic food and see the FSA as a GM industry / US Government policy promotion group. And my trust for the Soil Association's opinion is more than instinct. It's based on many many independent studies, the main result of which helped to compose the Top Reasons to Go Organic list on this site.
4. Do you know what has happened to SimplyOrganic who I used to do an occasional bulk buy from as there web site seems to have disappeared.
I believe they've gone bust, as their site has gone and their phones don't work either.
Best wishes,
Ysanne
