I don't trust any meat I get from a distant source, "organic" or not. I trust meat that I know about. Read the book "The Omnivore's Dilemma." There are factory farms certified as "organic," especially in the new federal standard sense (which is, of course, watered down from the original intent).

Also, cooking your meat thoroughly isn't going to diminish the impact of additives to the meat. It also won't help with things like "mad cow disease."

Fish is a whole other problem. I buy fish from a fisherman who gets wild salmon from the cleanest possible part of the Alaskan waters. You'd be horrified to see what farmed fish is fed - and pretty much everything you see in a grocery store is farmed. Also, it is extremely difficult to get shrimp that isn't farmed, and when you get wild shrimp, they are very expensive. Farmed shrimp is disgusting, too.

If I couldn't get good meat and dairy where I live, I would probably avoid meat. I would get a few chickens and eat eggs or something - that's as far as I would go.
