[quote=Anonymous]The term Organic only had to be derived once we started using pesticides. Pre-pesticides everything was Organic by default. Now we need a term to tell us which plants were sprayed with god knows what, and which were not.

Frozen organic is always cheaper. We buy organic for 99% produce (at least the dirty dozen), meat, and dairy. MOM's is actually a bit cheaper when it comes to produce and the inner aisles, but I've found WF to have the best meat/poultry selection for Organic. There's a new place called the Meat House that's very reasonably priced, but I'm not sure if it's Organic.

One thing I do which helps save $$ is to buy a whole chicken (from WF it's about $10), boil it with an onion, some celery, garlic, carrots, etc, which makes a nice stock and I now have chicken and stock for the week. Our family loves risotto, so I'll use the stock and some diced chicken, normally add some roasted butternut squash. Pasta is super easy, toss with olive oil some chicken and any roasted/steamed veggies you like. [/quote]
