The Bite:
Cinco de Mayo got you searching for the final burrito frontier? Beam yourself up to Cosmic Cantina (open 'til 5 am, BTW) and fuel up on spice-ilicious Mexican grub (nachos, tacos, burritos, etc.) made with organic beans, rice, tortillas, and veggies from local Alberts Organics, plus free-range chicken and grass-fed steak from United Naturals. The Enterprise also has margaritas made with hand-pressed organic strawberry juice, and sangria with bi-dy wine and organic fruit…to help you live long and prosper.
Why Care?: 
Organic foods are grown without pesticides, which the EPA says can cause cancer, damage to the nervous system, and hormone disruption.
Try the sloppy Deluxe Burrito stuffed with organic beans, spicy salsa, cheese, rice, sour cream, and real guac' (not the crappy, processed mayoesque kind).
Wanna Try: 
Cosmic Cantina, 101 Third Ave. (212-420-0975). Deluxe Burrito, $7; Sangria, $8/glass.

Cocktail Fact

Network TV's first interracial kiss took place on a 1968 episode of Star Trek when Captain Kirk lays one on Lieutenant Uhura.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 NY Biters buy a locally grown, salsa-bound tomato instead of one shipped by truck from CA, we'll stamp out the CO2-emissions equal to trucking to the moon and back 116 times.
