The green ice cream

摘要

AIthough the organic food market remains small, at between one and two per cent of European retail food sales, it is expected to account for seven per cent of sales by 2005. This may well push manufacturers to make sure they consider consumer concerns, and to offer organic options in all food categories. In its early stages of development, organic food was limited to the fruit and vegetable sectors but it has now expanded to include many food groups, including milk-based products like yogurt, desserts and ice cream. The organic sector has now moved into the mainstream, and shops are giving over an increasing amount of shelf space to these foods.
