Case study, in season California organic strawberries vs. in-season non-organic. This hasn't been peer reviewed or anything, but 9 out of 10 people I tested enjoyed the organic strawberries more. Same with blueberries, bananas, roma tomatoes, granny smith apples etc.

Doubtful with bananas. Only Cavendish is grown. There are no other banana cultivars.
Any highbush blueberry cultivar will taste better than lowbush, organic or not.
When you mean "Roma tomatoes", you're talking about what cultivars exactly?
Apples are highly sensitive to cultivation methods, organic or not.

Without knowing what they were, I served some delicious organic heirloom tomatoes to my parents and aunts. Their reaction, unprompted, was, 'these taste the way tomatoes tasted when I was growing up'.

The point is that they were heirloom, not that they were grown organically.
