    Organic shoppers 'less likely to show kindness'

    Organic products make people feel more secure about their own morality, which weakens the desire to act altruistically, the US findings suggest.
    The effect also makes people judge immoral behavior more harshly, psychologists report in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science.
    But comfort foods such as chocolate can lead to us being more social and making "kinder moral judgments".

      Yeah You don't need a study for some things. I can see a relationship with such a mentality that is in to organic. Over perfectionism

          That study seemed to be geared towards comfort food which obviously makes people more helpful. Similary if you buy me a few comfort drinks then I will gladly pick up that heavy box for you!!

          I would like to see something more of a study on WHole FOOds verses Walmart clientele in who helps out who first. That would be more interesting.

            Reminds me of when everyone in South Park switched to Hybrids.

              When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers
