I dont stay up nights attempting to scientifically prove to myself that eliminating a certain portion of growth hormones, pesticides, and carbon monoxide from my diet is better for my health. To me it is simple common sense, but it appears others dont care/arent interested, and so be it.

I sincerely hope they enjoy their next growth hormone injected, carbon monoxide treated, hamburger from cows who not only trod about in their own waste, but chemical waste as well.Yum yum.

I fully understand what you say, and think that is sound logic and a sound approach. I am not an organic obsessed person, but if the option is there, and it isn’t outrageously overpriced, as some items are, I will buy organic vs. non-organic. I figure at worst it couldn’t hurt. Again, thanks for that link. I had been looking for something like that as it helps focus where one should spend extra if they so desire.

I also agree with what others have stated, that many "organic" products simply have better ingredients…real sugar, no hydrogenated fats, etc. Even if the "organic" benefit is limited, avoiding other problem ingredients makes them worth while.
