Buying Organic: For The Money Saver

When grocery shopping, there are times when you have to decide between saving money and staying healthy. That's why the vast majority of low-class families are overweight -- fast food, cheap food, canned goods, and staples are usually very unhealthy foods.

Many of us want to buy healthy foods, but at affordable prices. Even when we see an organic zucchini that's only 13 cents more per pound, it can really add up, and you'll see the difference at the checkout. Every penny counts to the money saver. In fact, one mom slashed her family's monthly grocery bill by $600 by making every penny count.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't buy organic. At all. In fact, some things are actually WORTH spending extra on to get organic, and your health is important.

But just because it says "organic," it doesn't mean it's healthier, tastier, better for the environment, has less pesticides, or any other reason why you think you should buy organic. 

"Organic junk food is still junk food. And conventional fresh, healthy food is still healthy food." -Forbes

I agree with Forbes. Just because it says "organic" doesn't mean that it's healthy. If it's an organic Oreo, it's still an Oreo. You're not going to eat a handful of organic Oreos, chips, cookies, ice-cream, etc., and get healthier or more nutrients.

THINK ABOUT IT: Even staples like sugar and salt can be organic. But sugar is sugar, salt is salt, and I've never heard of a healthy sugar or salt.

These same concerns for "organic" labels go hand-in-hand with other marketing labels: whole wheat, whole grain, healthier, less fat, nutritious, balanced, less sugar, natural, etc. 


Read Forbe's article to see what they have to say about buying organic: http://www.forbes.com/sites/learnvest/2012/09/06/study-says-organic-isnt-healthier-heres-why-it-still-may-be-worth-the-cost-999/
