Not to quibble, but here is some evidence that certain organic foods
produce more antioxidants etc, than conventionally grown foods, but I don't
believe it's a big enough difference to warrant double or triple the
price.  I'm going to start reccomending to anyone that complains about
modern agriculture read Locovore's Dilemma,
http://www.amazon.com/The-Locavores-Dilemma-Praise-000-mile/dp/1586489402
before
they get too far up in arms.  It's easy to forget how many people starved
(and still do) when/where modern agriculture didn't/doesn't exist.  That's
not to say we shouldn't try to make it better, but it's just plain stupid
to try to destroy the industry with legislation.
