Organic food

Mr Incredible

Price premium and "health issues" aside, does anyone else find organic food tastes better than non-organic?  I am surprised by how much fruit and vegetables taste much nicer!

i get organic eggs and to be honest, i never noticed a difference.

but i still keep buying them....feel sorry for the poor battery hens

Oversleep

According to my mouth some organic food taste far better than normal range....

Honestly can't taste a difference.

I think the only organic produce I buy because of that is eggs and peppers (I eat peppers every day, so want 'the best').

I can never taste the difference with organic... and the organic range of demerara sugar from JS is not as nice as their normal range (only pack left last week)

I can tell the difference between supermarket choice and more expensive supermarket lines or other brands though

I'm not quite sure why but I find Organic chicken tastes worse, can't figure that one out, perhaps my taste buds are too attuned to all the crap they put in them.

Organic mince I think tastes much better, the wife actually goes direct to the farm and sees it being made, it really has a great flavour to it.

We always use organic eggs but honestly can't tell the difference.

Organic carrots seem to be a winner, more flavour to them.

All seems very hit and miss as far as flavour / taste goes to me.

I can definitely tell the difference between free range eggs and battery / cage hen eggs. Regards organic food, I'm not particularly sold on it..

I got a mixed box of fruit from Abel & Cole and found that most of the fruit didn't taste that much better if at all from the usual fruit that we get. It did however last a lot longer before going soft.

Abel & Cole are currently offering £10 cashback if you go through Quidco on your first order so if any body wants to try for themselves you can get the fruit box plus like I did which with the cashback will only cost £3.95.

The organic veg from the supermarket definitely taste better than the non organic veg from the supermarket - but I do wonder if that's simply because they are fresher (as organic food has to be sold more quickly)

The non organic from the farmers market, tastes as good as the organic from the farmers market.
