That is the great debate. I compare the prices, I often find things like celery and cilantro cheaper in the organic section so I have learned to check the prices before I choose one way or the other. It is fast becoming a mistake to assume that organic is always going to have the higher price. Organics vs. standard fare.

It's more than just the veggies. The healthier the soil, the healthier and more mineral-rich the fruits and veggies will be. As always, Shop Smart... Shop Wisely... Shop Consciously!
