The stores in my area that have organic vegs/fruits have sales on certain items that make them about the same price (and sometimes cheaper) than non-organic.  I do the majority of my shopping from the organic & health food aisles, and prefer to buy non-gmo products.  I spend the same amount for groceries every week that I did before when I wasn't that concerned with health.

The difference now is, when I leave the store....I feel that I bought REAL food.  Some items might cost a little more than their cheaper counter parts, but it's just a matter of prioritizing items and knowing which items will go the farthest in stretching the weekly menu. 

I do feel much better than I did a year ago, so much so, that I don't even miss the things that I used to buy.

I eat a variety of food, unfortunately I just found out that I am allergic to a lot of food so it seems I will be eating organic and gluten free in the future. I do feed my daughter though mostly organic food.

A variety.  Usually would prefer organic but it's so expensive and we are short on funds most days.

I eat a variety for organic and non-organic foods. I would love to go all organic but it's just to expensive for  family of 5 on our salary. So I buy all fresh produce organic and meats are organic. Everything else I compare and look for the better option. Juices for the children are always organic.

Nah, I don't really pay attention to that. Too expensive, but I try and eat right.

Sometimes, but organic foods can be pricey so I tend to make healthy choices and  eat a variety of foods that are within my budget.

I eat a few organic foods.  I find they taste the same as the generic foods.  Another point-too expensive.

Variety of foods... Dont really care for organic label.. Sure it is nice, but some news articles are saying it's just a label to spike prices... Some EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) products use damaged or rotten olives cuz there is not enough good olives to meet the demand...The recent wood pulp in your Parmesan.. Wouldn't be surprised if some organic labels aren't really organic
