I ate an organic apple today. I think that may have been the most exciting thing that has happened in awhile. I went to Central Market the other day for groceries after battling between it and HEB. I don't know what was the ultimate determining factor, perhaps because it was more "on the way" home from work that HEB, but I chose Central Market.
Buying food is such a chore. Why can't be choose to be insta-full sometimes? There was a ridiculously varied selection of apples to choose from, how was I to know which one was best? I went with the obscenely expensive organic ones, figuring if I was going to shop at CM I might as well do it in full. I got organic chicken as well. I don't know how that one is since I haven't made anything with it yet. I bought some ground beef but it didn't say anywhere on it that it was organic and it looked and tasted the same in my spaghetti so I could have such spent a lot more money for something I usually get for less down the street.
But the apple was good. I don't know if it was "would purchase again" good, but it had several notes of flavor. It was interesting to see what an apple is suppose to look like, a smaller fruit than what most groceries stores sell. I remember hearing or reading that they are engineered to be bigger just like chickens are fed onto obesity to produce plentiful product. Why don't the big apples taste really good then? Another thing I should research but wont because I am going to sleep and will forget about it and when I do think about it again it will be in passing and I will forget to look it up again, and again, and again, and...I'm going to sleep.
