Is Organic Not Worth It ?
I recently came across this article: Is ‘Organic’ Worth It? .
This article describes when and when not to buy organic food when keeping in mind value for money and the amount of residue of pesticides on products.
Though I agree with a lot of the things mentioned in this article, I however do not agree with part of the section called ‘Foods not worth buying organic’. Two of the the items mentioned are milk and yogurt. It is said that, like with milk, any residue from cattle feed ends up in milk fat, which gets removed if you buy low-fat or skim milk. So any residue left in the milk can be discarded and considered not important.
One thing this article does not mention is the hormones a lot of animals get injected with and would ultimately end up in the products we eat. What happens to that?
On top of that, the big question is: Why does organic milk or yogurt taste so much better compared to non-organic milk or yogurt?
