In studies -- there has been found to be zero difference between organic and non-organic fruits and vegetables. The only fruits that seemed to benefit from not being treated with pesticides are soft skin fruits such as peaches, etc.

I think the organic market is a cash grab -- where the retailers mark-up the organic produce to make a bigger margin. The large retailers are not paying more for the produce -- but the shopper does.
