If you have stopped by your local grocery store or farmers market lately, chances are you have been faced with two options: organic or non-organic.

In terms of well being, however, the decision is straightforward; but that doesn’t mean it’s an easy selection. Most people, when they hit the store, are trying to find ways to shrink their grocery bill, not increase it. You are almost certain to raise costs a bit by choosing all organic produce. Yet – recent prices of organic produce have decreased dramatically, with larger grocery chains investing more resources into obtaining organic foods.

Questions about organic foods commonly circle the amount of pesticides used in the soil and whether or not it is indeed healthier than non-organic food.
