I have noticed this concept quite often of late and find it difficult to
believe.  Surely it is possible to produce organic honey in Alaska for
example or has this too been contaminated.  I would like to know what is the
opinion of the American members of this list on this subject.  Are you
worried that you can't produce organic honey or do you think the the
situation is acceptable?  What is the American opinion on organic food?
Would you pay more to eat organic food?  Is there a general revulsion
against pesticide use or is it acceptable provided no bees are killed?
