Target Goes Organic!

I went to Target yesterday to buy some dishwasher detergent and figured I would peruse their food section while I was at it.

Unfortunately, the entire frozen food and dairy section was out of commission thanks to the crazy power outages throughout the metropolitan DC area, but I shopped the cereal and snack aisles.

Organic Salsa

I was so pleasantly surprised to find organic corn chips and organic salsa!! At great prices nonetheless, and I ate a bunch last night and they were delicious!

Organic Corn Chips from Target

I'd previously looked through Target to try and find organic products without much luck, inspired by the film Food, Inc. which depicted WalMart embracing the organic food movement. I figured: "If WalMart is embracing organic products, Target must be as well." During that shopping trek, I was only able to find a few brand name organic items - and only one Stony Field Farm (the organic product Film, Inc.highlighted that WalMart was selling) product - baby yogurt.

This time, I again tried looking for brand name organic products, but didn't find much. I think I saw some Cascadian Farms products, but not many. I gave up on that and started checking out the Target brand items - believe me, I was surprised, and impressed.

Way to go Target! Keep it up and I'll keep shopping with you.
