Organic Hookup

If buying organic food was cheap we would all be doing it.  Well I have some good news, many fruits and vegetables have thick outer skins that aren't effected by the harmful pesticides. Here are some non-organic foods that are safe to buy, so you don't pay an arm and a leg for food.  I also included a list of foods that are essential to buy organic. (as a side note my chemistry professor, Gloria Freschl, would be very up set with the term organic. Why you ask? Well everything is organic! Obviously when I say organic I'm referring to the use of pesticides or lack of.)
