I don’t eat organic foods because they (may) have more vitamins and minerals... I try to eat organic foods because I don’t want to ingest man-made chemicals or growth hormones...
exactly.
people that eat the foods of the corporate agriculture-ama-pharma-ada-trial lawyers complex
get osteoporosis, coronary, diabetes, strokes etc.
I dont eat organic food because I refuse to buy anything that says “organic”, “green” or any other hippy fashionable food.
If its organic, fine, but I wont buy it just because its organic. And if I find out its marketed as organic I won’t eat it. I guess I am not “upwardly mobile”. Give me food. Regular food.
I prefer not to eat growth hormones, antibiotics, artificial colors and flavors, preservatives, etc. Organic also tastes better. Try eating organic potatoes for a couple weeks and then eat a "conventional" potato. The difference in taste cannot be denied.
My daughters especially noticed the difference in taste in beef and baked potatoes when they were teenagers who couldn't have cared less what we ate as long as it was food!
Hmmm... Not seeing the evil in man-made chemicals as opposed to 'nature made' ones. A chemical is either good or bad for you, doesn't matter where it got made. Cobra venom is not a man-made chemical but I doubt you'd want to ingest it.
My digestive system does a pretty decent job of sorting out food from non-food. I haven't been sick in years.
Needless to say, I won't eat anything that is labelled 'Organic' unless there's no other choice. The organic label is a political statement. All food is organic. What I want is cheap food that tastes good and that has plenty of nutrients in it.
