Profile Idea

I'm considering doing my profile on the People's Food Co-Op in downtown Kalamazoo. Hopefully in doing this I can relate it to the bigger issue of a growing demand for unprocessed, fresh food in the American diet. I read an article in the New York Times magazine yesterday called "You are what you Grow." It talked about the farm bill coming up for renewal this year and why corn-based products like twinkies are much cheaper than carrots and apples on a dollars for calories basis in the US. This inspired me to think about talking to the Co-op people to see if they also think there is a growing population of pro-organic foods consumers.
