Organic or Not Organic - That is the Question

Nutritionally speaking, is there really a difference between Organic and Non-organic foods?

If you ask most people they would say that the Organic food is better for you, but according to this video, this may be an assumption that isn't necessarily the case.

We all know that vine-ripened tomatoes taste better, and fresh-squeezed orange juice tastes better than anything that comes from a can, carton, or bottle.

That said, does it make any difference if it was Organically grown? What does "Organic" mean anyway?

Turns out, much of it is really marketing hype. Some foods are always "organic". For others, it comes down how the foods are processed.

In the end, however, for many people price is the determining factor. Organic foods cost more, and that can cause fruits and vegetables to be priced right out of reach for poor and middle-income families.
