Hmm, I most definitely recall someone arguing that Bitcoin is not a "real currency" until it's possible to buy daily food with it...

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

My wife is very involved with community supported agriculture here in Wisconsin. I'm going to meet with an organization that connects farmers with consumers who buy farm shares. Maybe even offer escrow to try out a direct buy system. It would be awesome to order a custom farm box paid in advance with bitcoin.
