The Great Organic Myth
May 9, 2011 @ 11:14 am
Conceptually organically grown fruits and vegetables would be a healthier choice. Sadly the term organic doesn’t mean much at all. A grower can have their fruits and vegetables certified as organic if they meet specific criteria such as the grower did not use any pesticides on his crops. However that does not mean there are no pesticides on his fruits or vegetables. A neighbor who uses pesticides might have had the spray used drift onto the organic growers fields or trees. Study carefully anything labeled organic. You pay more without any guarantee that the product is safer.
