    I try to purchase organic as much as possible. It's better for you and for the environment, so why not? Although, I have to say, organic doesn't always mean less processed, just 'cause it's organic, doesn't mean you should inhale a whole bag of cheesy puffs.

    If its on sale and its organic then i consider it a plus! Other than that, i don't go out of my way to purchase it.

    I buy as many organic products as I can. I always buy organic milk. Definitely try to get as many organics for the kids as possible. Would like to see more coupons for organics, though.

    If organic food were more affordable,that would be the only kind of food I would buy for my family. I would rather know where my food was coming from and that it was grown free of pesticides and other bad agents.I think I will make a stronger effort to find healthier choices for my family.

    Organic is the way to go for health, beauty and longevity. Organic can be expensive. I believe that the reason all children tend to grow larger then when I was a child is due to hormones in processed food.

    I purchase organic foods especially when they have a price markdown. I feel the organic foods are healthier and more tasty.

    I will buy some things that are organic, but I'm not willing to pay almost double just because it's organic. If it's reasonably priced then I'll buy it, but I don't think there's anything wrong with regular produce and it's more affordable.

    I purchase some organic produce, but sometimes I buy local to save on the price.
