Opinions on organic food?
I'm not completely sold on the health benefits of organic food, but I do think that (generally speaking) it results in more sustainable farming practices, so I'll try to buy it if I can.
What are your thoughts?




Organic farming is better for the farm workers. People working with pesticides and fertilizer have to be test periodically to be sure that they aren't being poisoned by the chemicals they work with. (I work in a medical lad and my department does one of the tests.) Even if you aren't at risk of being damaged by the food you eat, you are protecting the people who provide you with that food by choosing organic.
