    Does the price of Organic food put you off buying it?

    I find myself in a dilema every time I'm buying fruit and veg and have to admit I don't always do the what I know I should

    If you're in the wicklow vicinity www,meitheal.net is excellent.
    BULK DISCOUNT on organic goods, what more could a body ask for?
    Use them regularly now, huge range of goods, often fairtrade too.

    That's fair enough. I think pretty much everyone is like that. If you're resonably comfortable financially, it's no big deal, but if you're on the breadline, it's perfectly understandable that a person will only buy the cheapest. I don't think anyone would fault them for that either. Yeah it's better to buy organic but don't lose any sleep over it because you don't/can't.
    It's great to have principles and all but it's no great secret that you usually have to be able to afford them first. And the fact is the market is growing all the time and the difference in prices reduces accordingly.
