Very important point about natural food is that USDA did not regulate it. It depends on the manufacture's defition. It varies from factory to factory. It will find out most of them talking about the process.

I believe organic food is better for the body, health, and environment. I was very influnced by Michael Pollan. His book The Omnivore's Dilemma listed a lot of evidence. He is a professor at UC Berkeley. Many of his books are the nations' best sellers.

為什麽說有機食品比別的食品好呢?忽然想起了剛看的"工夫熊貓"(當然不是第一次啦),裏麵那個鴨子爸爸怎麽對熊貓說的?"The secret of my secret noodle is - NOTHING. You only need to believe you are special to be special."

我查了一下wikipedia, organic and natural 是這樣定義的:
Organic foods are foods that are produced using methods that do not involve modern synthetic inputs such as pesticides and chemical fertilizers, do not contain genetically modified organisms, and are not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents, or chemical food additives.
"Natural foods" and "all natural foods" are widely used terms in food labeling and marketing with a variety of definitions, some of which are vague. "Natural foods" are often assumed to be foods that are minimally processed and do not contain any hormones, antibiotics, sweeteners, food colors, or flavorings that were not originally in the food.The terms are often misused on labels and in advertisements.
所以natural food 要仔細看label.比如說Whole Foods的natural肉類，就仔細說明沒有hormones, antibiotics,但是喂養的食料不是organic的，所以natural的肉比organic的肉成本低，賣得便宜些。
Haha....we eat everything organic except for broccoli, cauliflower, banana and a few other veggies and fruits that do not absort pesticide
We found organic chicken actually taste better than natural chick.
Just eat less but eat with quality food, I think most people can afford it. Eating healthy is not neccesarily linked to longevity, but is definitely linked to lower cancer rate and stronger immune system. I've read lots of books on this and have done extensive research. I can quote scientific data to support what I believe.
