Infographic Friday

I’m a sucker for foods that are labeled ‘organic’ or ‘all natural’ or some other variation that soothes the buyer into believing that the food being purchased is healthier. I can’t really help it, I’m a marketer’s dream when it comes to stuff like that. Sean makes fun of me for it all the time. It all started when my mom (who is a total health nut and one of the main motivating factors in my quest to be healthy) starting buying organic food. As soon as she did, I hopped on the organic bandwagon like the little mini-me that I am and started purchasing anything and everything that was labeled organic. Over time, however, (as my mom has gotten pickier) I have started putting a little more research into what I buy that’s organic, instead of just paying the higher price without thinking about it. So when I was sent over this infographic on organic foods, I immediately knew it needed to make an appearance on Infographic Friday Smile

 

The Organic Debate: Are Organic Foods Healthier?
Brought to you by: MedicalBillingandCoding.org

Do you shop organic? Are there any foods that you don’t buy organic? I don’t buy organic bananas or oranges, or really anything with an outer peel, but I am adamant about buying organic apples, greens and berries.

Do you try and copy one of your parents all the time too? Please feel free to say yes so that I don’t feel like a total loser. I’ll  be the first to admit that I really do think my mom is the bomb.com. She freaking rocks.

  1. The bomb.com, i love it. Well i am not on the organic bandwagon. Im in the diapers wipes and formula bandwagon. My son is organic, right? Lol created by the all natural primal process?!

  2. You are too cute. I’m an unintentional mini-me of my mom. We even sound alike when we talk–it’s scary! I’m not super into organics, but I am into buying from the local farmer’s markets. I figure that’s got to be healthier than what’s in stores, right? :)

    • bahaha my mom and i sound alike too. we even tend to dress similarly, it’s a little scary. i think by default most farmer’s market stuff is organic?

    • at this point i know when it’s worth it to splurge on organic stuff and when it’s not – i’m a very careful shopper though, i cut coupons, shop sales, and price check EVERYTHING haha
