The availability of organic foods varies from supermarket to supermarket. Usually, supermarkets offer some organic fresh fruits and vegetables, but few organic processed foods. Some offer alternatives to cow's milk and other dairy products, and may offer grass-fed beef and other meats.
In order to buy organic foods, the labeling of organics must be considered. Unless they are labeled "100% organic," they can contain non-organic ingredients. Also, the label "natural" is not defined and does not in any way mean organic. If the purpose of buying organic is to eat non-GMO foods, it is possible that even organic foods are not totally free of GMOs due to possible cross-pollination with GMO crops during growth. (This is true for corn, soy, papayas, canola, and any other varieties that have been genetically modified.)
The best place to find organic foods is in a health food store, but even then all their foods may not be totally organically grown.
