Understanding The Three Ratings For Produce
Wednesday, February 2, 2011 at 11:28PM Recently, I was fortunate to interview Kenny Camp, owner of Organic Harvest about what's the best produce to eat and the different ratings for produce. If you haven't met Kenny yet, I encourage you to stop by and talk to him about produce, food and everything organic. (No, he's not paying me to write this) He really is a font of knowledge.
Did you know anyone can slap an all natural tag on a product? There is no regulation for the term "All Natural". Also, conventional produce often times has pesticides that are not even water soluble? That means with out special cleaners, your household sink water will not get the chemicals off.
Besides the fact that to be "Organic" produce, the grower must follow strict standards with chemicals, and the soil must be rotated in just the right way, there is another big reason to eat organic. MINERALS.
If you have ever bitten into a fresh, organic tomato, you'll notice right away the flavor takes over your mouth. Conversely, often times the conventional produce tastes flat. The diffefence is the amount of sugar to minerals in the fruit/vegetable. Organic produce is higher in minerals, which is not only good for you but tastes better, too. Conventional produce is higher in sugar, thus needing more pesticides because they attract more bugs.
