>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 13:15:06 2021 No.16995311 >>16995299 A potato from a plant that has been sprayed with pesticides

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 13:17:15 2021 No.16995314 >>16995280 I prefer to eat pears over apples, but if I'm cooking with apples, I peel them.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 13:25:03 2021 No.16995349 >>16995299 A potato that's produced under the standards required to call it organic. >>16995311 Wrong.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 13:30:32 2021 No.16995376 I wouldn't do it. Potato farmers put sprout inhibitors after harvest. Things like Chlorpropham. If you're okay with eating that, go ahead.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 13:45:21 2021 No.16995415 >>16995349 >produced under the standards required to call it organic. Those standards can actually lead to the crop being sprayed with more pesticide

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 14:04:15 2021 No.16995471 >>16995427 People think that organic means that they don't use pesticides or that organic foods are better for you

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 14:19:05 2021 No.16995528 >>16995471 Yeah, the "organic" label is pretty shit. In Italy I know they use "bio", short for biologic, for that.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 18:10:41 2021 No.16996549 >>16995314 So if you're cooking an apple you peel it to get rid of pesticides, but if you're not cooking it, the peel's safe to eat?

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 18:25:56 2021 No.16996612 >>16995311 >A potato from a plant that has been sprayed with pesticides 'organic' produce is still sprayed with pesticides bro

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 18:59:16 2021 No.16996764 >>16995270 Organic has nothing to do with GMO. You can have organic GMO products. Organic means no pesticides, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers, etc. Most of them have to use manure as fertilizer, which means that organic foods are not vegan.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 16 19:03:52 2021 No.16996774 >>16996764 >Organic means no pesticides, herbicides Wrong, but there's certain types of pesticides and herbicides that aren't allowed.
