When we spoke last fall, Mackey was at first diplomatic about the organic-local choice. He told me that when he can't get locally grown organics--and even he can't reliably get them--he decides on the basis of taste.

AFTER BOTCHING A LANDING IN his first qualifying run at the Winter Olympics in Torino, Shaun White, a shaggy-haired, usually mellow snowboarder, nicknamed the "Flying Tomato" for his red mane, looked lost. "I got all Olympicky," he said of his nerves. He eased his mind with a few practice runs and nailed two 1080s--a 1080 is three complete rotations in the air--in the finals to earn gold...
