Can organic foods be proven scientifically they are organic or is this just an advertising gimick?

Question by deich: Can organic foods be proven scientifically they are organic or is this just an advertising gimick?
I have never seen any scientific evidence that organic foods are better. All I see is a lot of hype and a higher price tag.
Remember, I’m looking for scientific evidence, not just what people think.

Add to that they may not exactly be chemical free.

The labelling rules aren’t that strict.

We dont have lots of money but I would like to start eating more organic food. I already eat organic apples, organic mixed greens and organic peanut butter. What are the BEST foods to choose to eat organic. I heard milk and meat are good ones. Any others? I dont plan on eating everything organic but choosing the ones that are best bang for your buck.

Hey MissLiss,

I’ve heard meats and dairy since the fat in these foods tends to absorb more of the pestcides and growth hormones used in conventional farming. However, I’ve also started to use organic, unbleached flour in my baking and found that everyting I baked turned out nicer. Of course, organic fruits and veggies (when they’re in season) are tastier and healthier. You might even find that there’s a co-op organic farm nearby that you can get a membership tp for not too much money.

I would have to say extremely unpopular. Although I wouldn’t be surprised if you found a boutique health food store somewhere in Cairo. Or if you’re asking for business opportunity purposes then I would have to say that you would be investing a lot of money for a venture that has no future prospects in a country where the bulk of the population buy their groceries from street markets simply because everything else is un-affordable.

I guess the rest of the population buy their groceries from “supermarkets” which are more like 7/11′s than the Coles and Safeway supermarket’s we have in Western countries.
