Organic Junk is Still Junk

Believing that organic foods are automatically better for you. Sure, organic foods are made without pesticides and hormones and stuff, but they've still got calories.
Here's an example -- Tostitos Blue Corn Tortilla Chips have 280 calories in 11 chips. As for Organic Blue Corn Tortilla Chips? 250 calories. They're only very slightly lower in calories, so eating a whole bag while you lounge on the cough watching re-runs will still make it difficult to fit into your skinny jeans.
Don't get me wrong -- it's great that you're trying to eat healthier, but don't forget the first rule of dieting: Read the labels.
