I do buy the smallest carton. But yeah, I honestly just use 1 cup or so for a cupcake recipe. Unless I bake a lot more or make a meal that uses it in a sauce, it'll go bad before I finish it.

^^ Doesn't EdenSoy have 8 oz (240 ml) cartons like those small juice paks?

I am finally going to respond to the first post:

all you people against monsanto are out of touch with reality. there is no way to feed the whole planet and also make all the bioplastics, biodiesel, ethanol, sugar, oil and other industrial products the world desires without using crops that have been transformed to resist pesticides.


There are so many pressures on farmland to continue to outproduce historic yields- a growing population, rising cost of land and soil amendments- especially water and fertilizer, and the desire to preserve forestland and other areas that have already been cleared to create the existing farmland in the world, not to mention a bevy of new applications for soy and corn products. Man has been breeding and hybridizing crops for these very reasons for millennia, to increase productivity.

At some point, the main factor contributing to yield loss is not lack of nutrients and poor genetics, but an inability to out-compete weed species that can take advantage of the soil and light more quickly because they are not making the specialized compounds that we tend to grow crops for- mainly sugar and oil. Disease resistance is also a key mechanism for devastating yield losses. Many famines have been caused by inability to resist disease.

Now, a famine threatens many parts of the world because of the rising cost of food- not from any disease epidemics, but because of simple increased demand. When you think about the cost differential between an organic vegetable and its commercially grown counterpart, much of the cost differential is due to low yield- from disease, lack of nutrients, or inferior yield genetics found in "heirloom" varieties. Now imagine that this cost differential is applied to staple crops- the price of grain would be out of control and there would be a world food crisis.

Genetic transformation and pesticides are the only way the earth can produce enough to support all of the demands of a growing population. And some people want to get rich off of that- but maybe they deserve to- successful transformation is tedious at best and challenging to master.

If you fuckers would just have 2 kids or less, we wouldn't have a problem. Where's that clown car vagina pic of that stupid religious family.

JK, it's america, do what you want, somebody will probably provide for them

The population growth rate of the US is 0.894% according to the CIA.

thank gods it isnt higher

all you people whining about taking care of other people's kids- go somewhere really fucking poor for a few weeks and see how you like it.

10/18/2008 2:42:49 AM

all of us..

I'm a democrat, I will gladly pay a couple more dollars a year if it keeps some kids fed. As long as it's not going to random shit that doesn't matter, which it will

My problems with Monsanto have nothing to do with the product they sell but everything to do with their business practices.
