I remember stocking up on food in a supermarket in Switzerland when I was in my mid teens and seeing organic fruit and vegetables for the first time. I couldn't tell the difference. I didn't know the difference either.
Over the years I have started to understand the importance of eating organic food. How we protect our environment by not supporting harmful pesticides use and, more importantly, to maintain our personal health. Obviously the distinct taste difference is a huge plus (strawberries actually taste like they should!) and the similarity in price now means that it is much more feasible for your budget.
Dr Andrew Weil has a website which I often turn to for guidance when it comes to my health. Here's what he says about organic food. And, interestingly, foods you don't have to buy organic.
What about you? What organic food do you eat?
