how much does it go organic?

Does this good to you? No pesticides, no hormones, and no antibiotics? Sounds good, but what does it mean go organic for a budget? You can check out the grocery stores in your local area. My area has Publix, Target, Wal Mart, and Winn Dixie. These stores do have some oganic cerals, tomato sauces, and the like. I am not convince the vegetables and fruit section in all the stores are organic, but it could be. Mostly, they are in the farmer's market where they grow organic garden is the best bet. Now, if you are looking for free range chicken, and meat and it is harder to find in the smaller towns but mostly in good grocery store such as Publix, or Target. They have some selection, but not all. You will notice that the meat you buy can be very tasty and rich in flavor. To make a better results how to save money on organic foods. I sugguest youlook at the ad in the paper every week ( Wednesday's paper) and find out what is on sale. Sometimes it is not on sale and sure most of the organic foods from Wild Oats store and Whole foods store are much higher. But the question is, is it worth it? One thing that I noticed is that lot of organic cereals are much smaller than the sugar refinery cereals.
The verdict of this, usually the store such as whole food store or Manna Grocery are much higher- probably around 50-60 bucks higher than the regular food grocery chain store. Watch out and you can buy on some things that will not hurt your budget. Keep looking in the paper and see what is on sale and you will be much better off than losing your money from your pocket.
