Sorry for the lengthy question. I am a true believer in the need to reform America's food industry. My wife and I are mostly vegetarian and only buy local and organic products. My parents are of the baby boomer generation and do not understand my wife's and my passion for helping to reform food culture in the U.S. and do everything they can to dispute any reasons we give them for trying to avoid chemicals and hormones in our foods. They believe that, if the government allows all of these additives in our food, that there must be a good reason for it. Do you find that the mindset of the Baby Boomer generation seems to be the hardest mindset to change with respect to the need to reform our food system? My feeling is that it is and it is due to the fact that the industrialization of the food system essentially grew up with them.
