Discuss why you dont eat Organic Food?

AngryBrute · January 16, 2015, 08:23:08 PM

Its much better for you! Its exactly the same, it just has none of the harmful cat piss stuff in them. They are naturally grown when it comes to veggies and fruits, and they are not GMO's!

So why dont you eat organic?

All the food I eat is carbon-based, soooo. . .

Also you have 5 seconds to explain to me why GMOs are inherently wrong or provide at least 3 studies proving so that aren't obviously flawed in some way.

Chemicals I can understand but the main way of cutting down on chemical use is through genetic manipulation to make plants resistant to pests and blight.

Because I'm a poor college student

I do, thank you very much.

Well... I try. I'm poor. I do what I can.

I understand how buying organic fruits makes it so you skip out on the pesticides, which could be harmful. But is there actually any evidence that GMOs are bad for you? All I've heard is a lot of paranoia associated with GMOs.

I avoid processed shit (like those cheese singles). I have absolutely no problem with genetically modified food.

Ásgeirr · January 16, 2015, 08:38:42 PM

Kiwicake · January 16, 2015, 08:40:24 PM

Fad diets are fads.

And expensive.

They are massively expensive and no better than GMO food. ALL food we eat is organic. And organic food still uses pesticide. You're just wasting your money, essentially. I'd be far more worried about the fluoride in food and water. GMOs can actually be a very good thing, and even organic food has been genetically modified.

Mercury in fish is another thing to worry about. Particularly tuna.

I went to buy some blueberries since they were 89 cents a carton or whatever. I was charged 20 dollars because 3 of the blueberries cartons were 5 bucks each. So fuck organic

Not all of us have perfect bodies, so we have to watch what we eat.

Because I'm a student with no stable income (actually none at all), and food is expensive as it is, yo.
