Greener groceries - at a price

Article Abstract:

Consumption of organic food, which is more expensive than non-organic, is increasing. The cost of the two types of fruit and vegetables are compared, and reasons for buying organic food are discussed. The arguments in favour of eating organic foods are for taste, though it has not been proven that the taste is better, health, as man-made chemicals are not used, though organic foods can still contain residues, and the benefits for the environment.
