We don't really, but occasionally we will pick up something that just happens to be organic (mostly fruits or veggies), but we do not make it a point to buy only organic. Mostly because it isn't in the budget. Do you buy a lot of organic?

We buy organic for the "dirty dozen" but not much else. I was buying organic meat but recently read an article that pediatricians/AAP have said as far as meat & dairy it's no necessary to buy organic!

We eat about 80% organic. My kids eat about 90% organic. I am paranoid about it, especially when it comes to meat and dairy products.
But yet they were both about 50% formula fed, and I didn't go organic for that. Ahhhh logic, where have you gone?

We try to eat organic, free range, grass-fed as much as possible.

I'm a little wishy-washy on organic for veggies. For meat I prefer free range and grass fed, but it's not always an option.

When I shopped at Whole Foods, I would only get organic for the Dirty Dozen. Now I shop at Ingles, and I get the organic version of whatever I need, if they have it. Our grocery expenses decreased by a couple hundred dollars/month just by switching stores!

Not really, but if they're about the same price as the non-organic or the non-organic version looks blah and I need that item then I'll buy organic.

I usually buy veggies organic, fruits go either way, eggs and milk organic, and regular meat/chicken/fish. Instead of buying organic meat, we just try to not eat meat too much as a whole to cut down on our budget.

We buy as much organic and grass fed/free range as possible, too. And we also go easy on the meats....they get pricey!

No. We can't afford it and our selection isn't very good here.
