I enjoyed this book mostly for the look at the migrant workers that are employed to harvest the majority of produce that fills our grocery stores. One of the many things that I learned from this book was that organic crops can be sprayed with organic pesticides, insecticides, and fungicides. This seems to be going against the purpose of labeling something organic. Basically, this book reinforced my belief that unless you grow it and cook it yourself, you dont truly know what you are getting. While this was a great informative book, there were certain spaces in which the story lagged, being filled with statistics.
