Because it's not? Since it doesn't meet USA certification standards?

It's important to my dietitian

I run a tight ship, and go beyond what the USDA demands in order to please my customers. Unfortunately, licensure and some nitpicky regulations (combined with my hate of government insitutions) keep from going standard.

No it's not

To be called organic, there can't have been any pesticides used on the land for the three years prior to planting

Yeah....ok.

Here, this carrot is organic. I promise.

If you would have hired me as your fitness trainer and life coach, you wouldn't have found yourself in this position, all bloated and dying of diabetes, and horny.

I love how the OT can't stand to not use only the choices provider

No central market

HEB is tGOAT

whole foods is great, of course, but can be expensive with certain items

sprouts is underrated (great place to get nuts and berries) but if i live in a place like austin or houston with access to all 3, im going HEB

Well that's a refief. Cause those things only deplete you of water weight and a whole bunch of poo.


Good luck with the healthy eating though. I'm not a strictly all organic type person...but I've always liked the selection the few times I went to Sprouts. That place makes you want to buy fresh veggies and fruit.

I thought sprouts was a local farmers market

I guess that's a marketing scheme

Farmer's market.

Scientific studies have shown that there is no nutritional difference between organic vs non organic produce. You can argue about pesticides, but I think that's pretty much a crock of crap as well, unless you buy them from a farmer who does not use pesticides at all. Then a myriad of other potential problems arise.
