Ignorance is bliss....this mindset is what is wrong with this country and more specifically the south. My parents consider themselves to be health conscious and educated eaters, yet they still cling to this notion of "organic" being a gimmick. You have to read your labels. I know this takes time and effort, but it's worth it. There are some products are worth buying and others that are not. Dairy and proteins are worth it, particularly proteins. C.A.F.O's are horrible and disgusting. As for produce, you can make up your mind on that. The reasoning behind buying organic produce is G.M.O's, which there is no real definitive evidence one way or the other as to negatives, while there are definite positives. The other reason is pesticides, to which there are most definitively negatives, but you can find pesticide free non-organic produce. Most processed items are not worth the price and only partially use organic products, unless it says USDA certified 100% organic.

This was probably the best post in this thread.
That being said...i laugh at this...

Because the government doesn't take money from special interest groups and has the best of intentions, when it comes to the health of the general public.

You do realize that organic foods still use pesticides right?
They just use less effective, more toxic ones. And more of it.
But hey, they aren't synthetic.
