Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 All, Regarding when to choose organic, another criteria besides the pocketbook, may be which ones are notorious for higher levels of pesticide use. In message #30421, I provided some resources to a couple " dirty dozen " lists. And Anna, to whom I was responding, also had good suggestions to consider the various skins on produce and whether they're peeled or not. Hope this helps, -Erin http://www.zenpawn.com/vegblog rawfood , jeannieh h <jeannieh99 wrote: > > Joe, > > That is my current dilemma. I am spending about that [*] every week also. I am trying to stick to organic but sometimes I just can not afford all organic. I have to pick and choose what I will buy organic depending on the price. Do I want to pay 3.00 for a stalk of celery or .99cents. Strawberries were $4.49 for organic -vs-1.49 (on sale). Tht's another thing, organic fruits and veggies don't often go on sale, and when they do it is not (what I call) a great sale price. LOL > I'm just poor. LOL I do, however, believe this is the best thing I could be doing so I will continue to do the best I can. > I am trying to tell myself that it is going to save long term on doctor and health bills. > > I wish I new of a farm or farmer close by.

[*] - Joe had estimated his expenses at $100 week of late and as high as $100 every 3 days when he was 100% raw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
