On the first Friday of every month through September, anybody and everybody can shop at the Food Conspiracy Co-op and receive 10 percent off your entire purchase. 

The Food Conspiracy Co-op calls this Anti Depression Fridays for a relief of your economic blues.

Anybody can shop there at any time but usually the discount only applies to Co-op members.

The discount happens all day but from 6 to 8 p.m. enjoy live music and free food at first Friday fiesta which is also part of the eat local kick-off party.  

More 10% discount days are August 7 and September 4.

The Food Conspiracy Co-op is located at 412 N. Fourth Ave (purple/pink storefront); 624-4821.

Monsanto.

That could be one of the most scariest words on the planet.

Within the compound of Monsanto, I envision a world devoted to Soylent Green, one of the scariest movies ever made in the early 70′s.  In the film, fresh fruits and vegetables and meat are rare; food is rationed; and solyent green wafers are what people eat to survive.

Far fetched?

Maybe.

The Food Conspiracy Co-op and GMO Free Project are hosting a film tonight at the Crossroads Theatres called, The World According to Monsanto.  The  7 p.m. event is free; please bring organic canned foods for the Community Food Bank.

Please send your food markets and farmers markets news, feedback, suggestions, and questions to eat.tucson@yahoo.com
