Livin' La Vida Locavore

You know the saying "you are what you eat"? Well, if that's true then over the course of time I've become giant greasy plate of kungpao chezi approaching 7th grade biology worm status (in terms of formaldehyde, courtesy of Tsingtao).

Yikes!

How can I be green in a world full of packaged chicken feet?

Of course, the big business problem of preservatives and pesticides isn't restricted to China alone. But my point here is that there's more than a 50% chance that your friendly Beijing neighborhood produce seller is pushing poison right under your nose. These are just the facts, people (don't believe me? go ahead - GOOGLE IT).

But before I digress into more darkness, I will cut over to Jennifer Conrad's concise and insightful review on green eats and options in the city:
