  1. Organic food is expensive and sometimes does not have a very long shelf life, because it doesn't have all the extra stuff that preserves it. -Lauryn Anderson

  2. Organic food is more expansive and doesn't last long in market because its fresh and natural and not chemically changed to make it last longer. Takes longer to produce . -Ashley nkrumah 1

    2. It is and it doesn't even taste better so i don't see a reason to pay more for a worse product.

    1. All of the stated are true because of how organic food grows. The rate in which organic foods grow is slower than non-organic food because it does not have all of the chemicals added to it. The rate in which they grow causes the food to be more expensive and more labor demanding.

  4. organic food is too freaken expensive, like i'm trying to get my health right but these prices not helping me. why would i spend 10 dollars for a bag of organic carrots when i can get two 20 piece chicken nuggets at McDonald. That's 40 chicken nuggets compared to one bag of carrots. - dawn

    1. Well yeah but that's only because its not showered in harmful preservatives!

    2. The reason it is more expensive is because there is more manual work with organic materials with may take longer to produce than others.

  6. The one problem I see is that it is too easy for the fruit to be compromised by harmful insects, making the fruit not safe to eat.

  7. The main problems with organic food is the cost of producing it which causes the food prices to be higher because it takes up more land to produce the crops but you make less money than non organic foods also another problem is that it wont be able to provide for a large population and like Luke said it is too easy for fruit and vegetables to be harmed by insects - Juridia Roman

  8. Two main problems about organic food is that yes it is expensive that why not a lot of people buy it and that it does not contain any chemical which the food can contain insects and if a person consume them with out noticing the insect inside it can cause a person to get some kind of infection or disease.mirna farias

  9. There are a couple of problems with organic food. One, is that it is more expensive than foods with pesticides because it requires more labor. Another one. is that it does not last too long at home or in the stores because it does not include the chemicals needed, so it gets thrown away and wasted. Lastly, since organic foods take longer to grow, it demands for more labor which is not good.

  10. Some of the problems seen with organic foods is mainly the price. Organic food can also contain insects and can't be stored for a long period of time. - Clarissa T

  14. The price is higher due to the production methods. The food also doesn't last very long because of the lack of preservatives.

  15. Some problems I see with organic foods is that sometimes they can contain many types of bacterias since they don't use as much chemicals to protect them. Also they tend to be more expensive for the same reason that they must be extremely well taken care of to avoid any damages.- Jacqueline Lopez

  17. I think that organic foods can be more expensive than non organic foods which causes people not to eat them because people wouldn't spend a lot of money on just fruits and vegetables. It can be very unhealthy for families. -Kennedy Calvo

  18. I honestly see the prices as a problem, but then again we're paying for something that had a lot of dedication and a lot of time was dedicated to it as well, so i'm not sure if it should be considered a problem or not.
