Default Re: Who owns which organic companies...

I was mentally making a list in my head the last couple of weeks. You can get Cascadian Farms and Muir Glen coupons from eatbetteramerica.com, which is a GM co. website. When you email Kashi, it brings you to a Kellogg's site.

While we would like to think that organic companies are small, family run, enviromentally cautious, and such, it may not all be so. It might be, but...

That doesn't mean that I am going to stop buying the products b/c they are produced by a megacompany. I will buy them. But, I will buy them with a coupon, on sale, for the least amount as possible, without feeling bad for the people who make it. Because I know that they are still getting their bottom line met (and more).

Will I try to buy local? Sure. But when that is not an option (in the dead of winter), I can settle for a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th best plan.

Thanks for the info. DG. That site makes it easier to see what I was thinking all along.
