Finance: Food Investing: Options: Where is Enron When we need Them?

It seems only a few months ago since we could buy broadband futures with Enron or maybe Carbon credits. Now the Wall Street Journal pundits are even writing about which foods to hoard as a possible investment---after all, with yields dropping, an investment in skippy peanut butter, chunky of course,not creamy, with a possible appreciation of 7% would be an attractive alternative to a simple money market yield----what has it come to??????----I cannot even go to the store to shop without considering the alternatives whether a December skippy peanut butter chunky style future would be preferable to maybe spagetti sauce as an investment. It is so hard to make the proper choice.

It just seems like a bad grade "B" movie. I remember the good old days when Susie Ormon could suggest investing all of your money in 401K and to think that it might be all of your money in skippy peanut butter is just too much.
