Organic produce versus modern produce?
I know there's a lot of debate about organic foods being much healthier and how we should avoid GM stuff etc.
But let's be serious for a moment... Back in the days of organic being the only option, we also lived less years... Doing very well if you reached retirement!
Nowadays, we tend to live well past retirement... Despite pumping the air with toxins. What has changed?
Our diet. We're still eating the same stuff (plus more exotic stuff thanks to modern transport), but farming techniques have changed, we're killing the nasty little bugs with pesticides!
And we're living longer because of it!
Thankyou, modern farming techniques
