It just happen to be cheaper tonight otherwise I would never go over to the dark side. Organic has a worse carbon footprint and uses DHMO, but I do not care either way for this crime against the climate I just committed.

I arrived at an isolated Auckland cafe on Monday, thirsty as can be, and discovered much to my horror that it only sold organic food. This meant no Diet Coke, no Coke Zero, to quench my thirst quickly.
There was was only a light organic cola that was 40% less sugar. For diabetics such as me that is 60% too much sugar.
To add fuel the fire, the common symptom of diabetes, you can be thirsty all the time.
Organic food is not healthy if is unhealthy for people with chronic illnesses to eat or drink it for most basic functions of life such as quenching your thirst.
With diabetes, it is not wise to drink sweet things on a one-off basis such as this because you might remember how nice they are to drinking and lose discipline in your diet.
Out of 4.3 million New Zealanders, about 210, 000 people are affected with diabetes.

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
