Reply #17: great and that's my point

[paulsby]

one can buy NON GMO (i personally could not care less if it's GMO but that's another issue entirely) and still buy NON organic and save a metric assload of money

organic or NOT, i am going to wash it, unless it came from MY garden.

so, again.

organics you pay a lot extra for no statistically different health benefit.

heck, no benefit at all that i can see apart from FEELING good about it.

double blind taste tests, people ROUTINELY fail to identify a taste difference.

i have no problem with choosing to support farmers who grow organic

i choose to support farmers who offer VALUE for my money, and that generally means NON organic. so, we can both make our choices.

my only point was that it's rubbish that there is nutritional or health benefits to organics, or at least that come REMOTELY close to accounting for the price difference

i am glad we can agree on that
