Why So Expensive?

Hello there, this article is a continuation of my last one, so this one may be a little shorter than most.

So one of the biggest questions/complaints I hear when people talk about organic food is the price of organic food. "I'd buy organic if it didn't cost so much" or "Why does organic have to cost so much?". Here is my answer to you:

When you go and and buy a TV, what do you buy? Do you buy a Sony or a Daewoo? If you buy a Sony, you usually buy it because it's a good name brand, right? But why do you buy a Sony? Sony's are great products: they're reliable, they're made to last, the quality is great, and so on. But you're not going to buy a Daewoo, right? You're probably asking yourself, "What the heck is a Daewoo?". 

My point to all this is, yes organic brands aren't as popular, but wouldn't you rather pay more for the better option than to pay less for the crappier one? With TVs, you're pleasing yourself, obviously, but food; food is the most important thing for your body. Why would you want to go the cheaper unhealthy route when you wouldn't get a crappy cheap TV? 

Also, there are a lot of fake organic out there, but I can help you see past those. The real organic will have a little white and green sticker on it that says USDA ORGANIC. Those are the REAL organic foods. There are a lot of other healthy foods that will say NON-GMO on them, those are good as well, but not as healthy as the real thing. However, if you're new at changing your eating habits for the better, I'd suggest taking it slow for now and just start choosing NON-GMO labeled food. 

I say this because your body is so used to the sugars and other added ingredients of the food you usually consume each day, that when you eat something that's actually organic. It won't taste good to you, but if you take it one step at a time. You'll get there and it will taste good.
