Organic

My husband bought some ice cream – Rather costly, but on sale. “Organic” said the label So assumptions did prevail… Perhaps it would be healthy (Though we usually don’t care) Or made of some ingredients Imbuing it with flair. Instead, it tasted lousy. Though the package called it “mint,” Of that specific flavor There was not the slightest hint. The “chocolate” chips were carob, Lacking any chocolate flavor. I filled my bowl but sadly, It was not a treat to savor. The lesson to be learned is that No matter the expense, “Organic” equals not much taste. (To purists – no offense.)

Gluten free and hydroponic. Now food has to be organic. I don't know about the taste. But to some degree, it seems a waste. :)
