I'm with you on this Vernal! There have been plenty of studies in the past (not done by Chemical Industry) that have proven how many more antioxidants, vitamins and minerals you get from organic fruits and veggies because your body doesn't have to use them to fight off the pesticides and toxins sprayed on the fruits and veggies. What a load of B.S. It's just like those studies that "prove" that taking vitamins don't do anything for you, but they are put out by pharmaceutical companies using deranged man made synthetic poisonous vitamins in their studies. Conflict of interest? I should say so.
