What are the benefits of eating only organic foods?
Aside from them not having pesticides used on them.
Answers:
Well, as you mentioned, they are healthier/better for you. I mean who wants to eat foods that are loaded with chemicals?
Also, in many cases, they taste better. Sometimes the difference isn't noticeable, other times it's obvious.
They are also better for the environment because all those synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemicals aren't getting into the soil, groundwater, and runoff...which eventually dumps it into streams and rivers. Obviously, when this happens it's pretty bad for the critters that live in, or drink, that water.
Lastly, most organic farmers emphasize the use of renewable, or sustainable, resources and use methods that attempt to conserve soil and water.
