It's Unanimous...Organic Bananas Win

I go for price when I visit the grocery store. So, price has made organic produce scarce in our home. The other day, the bananas were looking a little old and brown at Pick 'n' Save. However, the organic bananas looked fresh. They were only 20 cents per pound more, so I brought them home. The difference with the kids was amazing. Usually, I can't get my kids to finish a whole banana, and a lot goes to waste. With the organic, both kids finished the whole banana, then asked for more. The taste must be the reason. I tried one myself, and it does taste much more like a banana. My pocketbook is already crying out in pain because I know more organic produce is to follow. But, if we can have less waste, I think the extra cost might be worth it. More to follow....
