Default GM/Organic Foods (Serious Debate)

What are your opinions on GM crops and these foods, and generally organic foods as a whole? Do you feel they're beneficial and are doing the general public good?

I agree all foods should be organic because pesticides to help cultivation can be dangerous to human health.
However, at the moment it is difficult for many families to buy organic foods because they have such high prices - so I think there should be a system where farmers can grow crops organically but still have quite a low price on them. (Doubt that will happen for a while though).

I think I was taught this in Science once. Are they the foods which are more expensive and healthier, then the cheap supermarket brands?

LMAO: funny you should mention this. My mom has a really funny thing about organic food, and she trys to buy everything she can organic. People call me organic girl at school haha. We'll be eating lunch and someone will say "what you got there?" ad id reply "Organic rasins" or "an Organic apple" lol. I think organic food is great as it isnt grown using pesticides and (not sure if its better for you because of that). But it is healthier,.
We dont have normal milk in the house either only Soya. eww. But i think it is good.

Organic food is so good for you. But it is really expensive. They should make it more avalible as it is so nutriuos comparing to some crap out there these days.
