    If your organic produce is spoiling quicker it’s probably because it’s not being grown locally and has spent more time in transit than the regular produce; spraying pesticides or using synthetic fertilizer doesn’t really add any preservative properties.

    Organic or regular produce from the farmer’s market will beat anything in a supermarket. Alas, it’s a fucking pain in the ass to get to one here and it’s not the cheapest.

      Fun fact: organic growers use pesticides. And the food is no healthier.
