Quote from OldTrader:

I've been eating organic foods for something like 20 years. I wouldn't say it's "30-50%" more. That said, I'm not sure what price you pay on food that isn't sprayed or otherwise grown wrong. Are you? It's only a question of price...and thankfully, I can afford it. Maybe one of these days you can too. LOL. But based on some of the posts I've read of yours it may be a while.

Save your sadness for those who have health difficulties resulting from the food they ate to save money. Next time you respond to something, try to know something about it first.

You keep paying more for organic when in fact there is no conclusion to the case that organic is better than conventional produce.

Results vary so widely that there arent any solid conclusions if organic foods are better for you or not.

Ask someone in their 70's or 80's or 90's if they ever ate "organic" fruits or vegetables.

Is it also sad to see people pay $25,000 for a Swiss Watch when you could get a Chinese watch for $25? You understand that one of the purposes of marketing is to establish a price mix that appeals to different parts (working class mom, upper middle class soccer mom, Hamptonite Botox MILF mom) of the customer crowd?

I have been to WF at least 10 times and I can tell you that it is all soccer moms shopping.

Who gives a rip what anone's opinion is on Whole Foods? There are some people out there who prefer to eat organic food for whatever reason, and there are people who like to shop at Whole Foods. Last time I checked, this is a capitalistic society, and people have the freedom to shop wherever and eat whatever they want. If you don't like it move to Russia and shop at Gum.

Quote from LodeRunner:


Similarly, it's a lie to say that inorganic food exists. It doesn't. Ask a chemist. Organic means "containing carbon". Any other definition you find has been invented by marketers, lobbyists, and/or clueless hippies.

Evidently you were so busy with your organic chemistry class, you missed the part of your English class where they discussed "homonyms".

For your education, here is a link to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary:

Step back....breathe deep....say it a couple of times to yourself.....homonym, homonym.

Exactly. That alone is worth the extra money. The hottest place in town...if you're looking.

Have you tried it, and is it certified organic by the management?
