Nope. I don't make it a point to shop organics and won't any time soon. The problem is organic has become little more than a cynical marketing ploy.
There are several different organic pesticide and herbicide compounds allowed on organic crops and some of these substances are as bad or worse for you than the artificial ones. Organic yields of several crops are up to 50% less than the same crop conventionally farmed. This wastes water. And if you're in a state like California well uh water shouldn't be wasted. It also wastes farmland as the land isn't yielding what it could and yet suffers the same damage. Oh but wait. There's more. It would suffer the same damage were it not for organics requiring more tillage and soil prep burning more fuel and causing more topsoil erosion.
So in sum. Not much if any safer, worse for the environment, more expensive for my wallet. No thanks. Don't need it.
Let's go to those pasture raised eggs. You would think oh this is from joe's little farm and there are chickens running around a pasture all day. That's nice. But you would be wrong. There are virtually no enforceable standards as to how long a chicken has to be outside to count as pasture. A chicken can live the vast majority of its existence in a cage, be allowed to run on a concrete floor for awhile and spend less than a minute a day actually seeing daylight and count as pasture. The requirements are a joke and full of so many loopholes as to make the label useless.
Now let's go to grass fed beef. All cattle at some point eat some grass. And in fact grass is mostly what they all eat for a large portion of their lives. The difference comes in when it's time to prepare them for market. Here again there are loopholes so as to make the label useless. If grass isn't "practical" they can feed it grain. And of course they get to still label it grass fed. And again there really isn't an enforceable standard. Now when people see grass fed, they see alfalfa, fescue, and kale salad with a nice raspberry vinegarette. Uh no.
This is how to make grass pellets.
So that grass fed beef might actually have some grain in its diet or quite a bit and they still can label it grass fed. Further, cattle fed only grass take longer to prepare for market and produces lower volumes of meat at a lesser quality. That's more water, for the feed, more fuel, and more environmental cost. But CW4D, that grass fed beef I get is every good as the other. Yes it sure is (and I'm no being sarcastic.) It really is as good. And it is less bad for you too. But what you're not seeing is the beef that didn't make it to the super market because it flat out wasn't good enough.
So once again, a bit better for you, not appreciably safer though, and worse for the environment and more expensive for my wallet.
Bottom line. If you have a local farm near you where you can get certain things and see how they do things and know exactly what you're getting, well do that.
But if you're buying these things at the super, you're probably not getting quite what you imagined you were when you read the label and you're paying extra money for it too.
