Does anyone have real, scientific evidence about the benefits of Organic over Non-Organic? Is it worth the extra cost?

Certain foods are and certain foods just aren’t worth the added cost. USA is rather loose on buzzwords like organic fair trade all natural as well so you never know how “organic” something is.

Correct, but “certified organic” does mean it passes USDA certification and is also not GMO. All natural means nothing and is 100% a buzz word. The problem is, it is expensive to get organically certified, so there are a lot of smaller farms not using pesticides that can’t afford the organic certification. Unfortunately, without doing your own testing, hard to know what is legit vs. what is not unless you’re growing your own food/raising your own animals…

Hi!

Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)
