"....I tell people that some evidence suggests that organic food is more nutritious, and some does not. Nutrition isn't even close to the main reason to buy organic food, anyway...." Exactly! The amount of chemicals/dodgy production practices/gmo that goes into non-organic food is more of a concern. And while we're on the subject it really frustrates me that 99% of the organic products I buy (excluding fresh products) is packaged in petrochemical plastic. What gives? This un-does alot of the good that went into keeping the product as pure as possible. Some companies use biodegradable cellulose plastic made from plants but is a very small minority. Even the canned goods have a plastic lining which seeps into the food it contains. Sorry I've gone off-topic...
