    Default Organic Food

    Anyone like it? Dislike it? Why should I pay $5.60 for a gallon of organic milk when regular milk costs $1.80?

    All food is organic.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    Taste and quality is the main reason to buy organic as it's generally called, organic milk is creamier and tastier whereas the big dairy companies generally take the best out of the milk to produce ice cream and other dairy products. If you compare a fine grassfed steak to that swill they produce in sheds you would never eat a conventional steak again.

    Exactly. I'm not really sure if eating Organic makes you any healthier than non-Organic, and organic usually doesn't have as long a shelf life as non-organic. I usually tend to prefer organic for special dinners and get togethers but shy away from it if I don't plan on using it within a few days.

    Health benefits are anecdotal at best there may be some cases where say people with high sensitivity to organo phosphate could be at risk from it's various uses but if the proper procedures were used for withdrawl period it still should be fine.

    Buy organic for taste, texture, colour and quality but apparently nutritionally there is little if any differ.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Organic milk is really cheap here, an euro for a liter. That cooked stuff meh it's horrible. I always prefer organic especially with meat, but the difference is hit and miss. I actually prefer non-organic chicken. Steak on the other hand...
