If you donated to the Infinity Dev. Group over Flattr, it seems that they have turned into a scam and you should charge these conmen back immediately by contacting your financial institution. (I realize this includes my support key. I don't give a shit, flood their insecure bullshit report ticket in my name. I see no other way to prove it.) Reports are that they lost their PayPal account recently, and Flattr CEO and only employee @bonq is ignoring all communication from me via their ticket system and Twitter. The icing on the cake is that they blocked me and three others for asking where the fuck 46.74 EUR went.

What are your thoughts on organic or not? Does it matter? Do you know the dirty dozen?

They still use pesticides, just "organic" pesticides which are usually just as if not more harmful.

The cost is also really high, in terms of cost/benefit, buying organic fruits/veges is very low down the list on cost/health benefits.

All other things being equal, organic is better. However it's better to eat the right foods in 'conventional' form than the wrong foods in organic form. Pesticides or hormones will kill you a lot slower than malnutrition will.

I avoid any and all food that isn't organic, however organic food is really expensive if you don't know how to look for it. I'm grateful that I know enough about nutrition that I can survive as a vegan on organic food only, but I see other people struggling when they try to find good food at fair prices.

when I walk into wholefoods I search like crazy and find only the stuff a fair prices like the oats, or the flax seeds. I grab some cans of beans and some frozen peas and I balance my nutrition carefully while avoiding the 5 dollar tiny freaking jar of BBQ sauce they want to insult my intelligence with. Its tough, but I manage to avoid the scams in the store and walk out with a decent shopping cart full of nutritionally balance plant foods.

its a pain in the ass, but because of my knowledge, I make it.

>They still use pesticides, just "organic" pesticides which are usually just as if not more harmful.

I don't believe that its worse. meanwhile all these other corporations add stuff that doesn't leave the dirt for over 40 years without degrading. pisses me off what they do to the earth and you can't rinse off whats already inside your fruits because of what they absorb as they grow and the surfactants they use to make it penetrate.

>The cost is also really high, in terms of cost/benefit, buying organic fruits/veges is very low down the list on cost/health benefits.

unless you know how to choose the right combination of fruits and vegetables to get a proper balance of vitamins, and know how to avoid all the scams.

I feel like so many people pointlessly and aimlessly wander stores regardless of if its wholefoods or some other place with their mouths hanging open in confusing and awe as they randomly swipe items off the shelves and into their carts like savages and then throw fits of blind rage when they hit the check out register.

nobody reads anything?

yes

>However it's better to eat the right foods in 'conventional' form

u wot

>than the wrong foods in organic form.

u wot m8

I don't think there is any "right" conventional food to eat or any wrong organic food to eat—– however I do read every ingredient list on 100% of anything I buy, even organic food. I have been surprised the amount of **** I can find on a pre-made organic food.

makes me rage how much they let slide now.

I'm getting better at avoiding all the garbage, and still eating 100% organic.
