I try as much as I can to eat organic epcxet for those with a thick peal that I will discard such as melons, oranges, bananas, and even cucumbers but I know I have to peal those. I buy organic apples, tomatoes definitely my greens if I am going to eat them or juice them parsley, spinach, celery, cucumbers (if I can find them), kale, dandelion greens, etc.And it is true that the organic does not mean it is free from everything it's just that it the farmers use fertilizers and pesticides that are considered organic. I often find at my farmers market some produce that they label naturally grown which means that they added nothing epcxet the seeds, water and sunshine but there isn't too much of that. I like to buy organic and local to support my community though I think it is a good thing for people to once again have a relationship with the grower of your food and support those small businesses that will give jobs to your neighbors. Plus you get what is in season it doesn't always work out though, but small steps can make a difference.However, I will say this I like what Dan the Man said about not having organics because of a) they are not available or b) your budget does not allow it just bless your food and don't worry about it. About 9 years ago, I cured a terrible bout of hay fever juicing all non-organic produce because I didn't know any better and it worked for me.
