text: Are you aware that organic also uses pesticides?  Some of them are quite nasty.  Look up rotenone for example, an "organic" pesticide which is extremely toxic to fish and has been linked to Parkinson's disease.  Also because the pesticides used in organic farming tend to not work nearly as well as synthetic pesticides they tend to use a lot more.
  
  What it all boils down to is organic is just a fear-based marketing ploy to get you to spend more money than you have to.
