People who are concerned about foods that contain additives and preservatives, the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and want to avoid GMOs consume organic foods.
Some people.
The texture of an organic food depends on the type of food it is. Since organic is a method of growing, the difference in organic and non-organic is that organic does not use synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. The texture of the food would be the same regardless of whether it is grown organically.
Any food can be organic. It depends on whether the food has been grown without the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesicides.
Yes. Organic food does not have the additives and preservatives that non organic foods do. It is also grown withoit the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers.
Organic foods are grown without the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Processed organic foods are made from organically grown foods and do not contain additives and preservatives that are not organic. They are not GMO.
Organic food is grown without the use of any growth hormones or synthetic chemicals. They do not contain any genetic modifications.
No. Organic foods do not contain any pesticides in them. This is what makes organic food different from conventional or natural foods. Although organic food does not use any pesticides, they use natural substances that are approved by USDA and other organic organizations. These help avoid pests while maintaining the soil’s health too. One of the brands that grows its food completely naturally without the use of any pesticide is Organic Tattva. They have over 100 organic products which are certified organic by the USDA.
Unless non-organic food contains preservatives, organic food should last as long as non-organic.
Unorganic is food that doesn't use as natural products as organic food and some unorganic foods use chemicals.
Not necessarily. Broccoli can be organic, but just because it is a vegetable doesn't automatically make it organic. When a vegetable is organic, it means they didn't use pesticide (non-organic ones, anyway), and didn't use GMO seeds. There is more to organic than simply fruits and vegetables.
Yup. It amounts to a small percentage; 5% of all food grown in the US is as of 2011 grown organic, but the US also gets lots of imported organic foods, especially from South America. Be wary of the imported organic food if you have additional concerns about chemicals being used on your food that organic buyers are trying to avoid - international standards to come by a USDA organic label become kind of lax, some countries being worse than others, because overseers in those countries are not as rigorous about the standards as ones based in the US are. For example, some foods passed off as organic that were imported from Asia, were, in fact, sprayed with some of the same chemicals that do not qualify as organic in the US. Therefore, you may not get as high quality of organic food if you get imported.
Yes
This is pros however it is mainly a comparison for the organic and non-organic i hope it helps 1. Organic food is the best type of food for many reasons. The food does not have as many pesticides as non-organic food this means that it is less harmful for humans, plants and animals. Also two of the pesticides that are used are natural pesticides. Organic food tastes much better than non-organic foods. Organic foods use pesticides on only one crop. However Non-organic foods use pesticides on all of their crops. Organic foods are looked after much better as they have to be grown in a certain way. Also more people are employed to look after the crops and animals. The organic crops are assessed to see if they are okay to be organic; however the non-organic crops are not and are just sold without checking. Organic food is 'natural' this is because it does not include as many chemicals or pesticides.
