I eat regularly in a restaurant that only uses organic produce, and you can
taste the difference. There are reasons other than the absence of pesticides,
etc., to go organic. The flavor levels are much higher, and when you have
ditched the sugar habit, you can taste the difference with commercial
produce. All nutrients will be higher, too. Organic is really a half way
house to fully wild plants, which have the highest flavors and nutrient
densities.
