1. Do you think organic food is healthier/safer/more nutritious than ordinary food?
I don't think it's a matter of subjective opinion anymore; it's a clear fact that organic food is not any more nutritious than regular food. It's also not "healthier" except to the extent that the pesticides are a health hazard.

That's exactly what an article I skimmed through the other day said about the topic.

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.

I think the organic movement is mostly a big scam: an excuse to charge more money for less food. Tim - 12/09/2012 11:40:40 PM 664 Views
