To Go Or Not To Go...... ORGANIC...

One of the main activity that we do on Saturdays is grocery shopping. We’ve noticed labels that read “Hormone Free”, “Natural” or “Organic” getting really common. In fact, we have also gone along with the hype to buy organic stuff when possible. With the prices of food going up, we are noticing the great jump in the monthly grocery bill and hence re-thinking the natural-organic-hormone free way. While looking for some info, I came across this article.
