There are more nutrients, so yes. I'm attempting to be predominately raw, so organic fruits and vegetables are a must if I want to avoid deficiencies.

Are inorganic substances even edible? I haven't tried to eat any rocks lately.

Yes but not entirely. What are we discussing about them?

I voted yes, but it's strictly on a financial basis since organic works out a whole load more expensive than regular pumped full of crap food.

I read somewhere that it's more important to eat the meat, veg and dairy as organic, as long as you got those ones covered then even if you don't switch to organic pasta and the rest, you are getting the most benefit.

Ideally, I would like to phase into eating all organic.

But right now, it's just whatever's at Randall's (their generic organics).

Looks like you're gonna die soon, or at least have painful kidney stones.

oh yes... my quirky prolonged suicide plan will be a success. i find that other vegans/raw foodists (for the most part) tend to be preoccupied with ideas of immortality. obviously not actual immortality, but i talked to one raw foodist who believes that he will live into his 150's.

I only buy organic meat, eggs, fruit and vegetables. It's not so expensive as I'm only buying for one. I'm not OTT about it though, I eat non-organic produce when I'm dining out.

I like Lateralus's answer. Isn't all food organic?

But to answer in a non-smartass way: I only buy organic when it comes to animal products. Plant matter, I get whatever looks good, whether it's organic or conventional. But I do a lot of my shopping at a co-op so much of it tends to organic anyway.

Depending on the type of food (e.g. some animal products), I prefer organic. Majority: no.
