If people want the cheaper GMO option they should be allowed, it's supposed to be a free market. But hating on people for preferring organic food is silly, the best of all is people who say there is no difference between organic and non-organic foods.

GMO carrots don't even taste like carrots, I could tell GMO apart from organic carrots just by smelling them. Wait.... are you trolling me here?

Think for yourself, have you ever yourself actually tested it and looked at the difference in food quality? You get the normal spinach and it's floppy, damp and light green while the organic kind is crisp, dark green with a strong taste of spinach. The nutritional difference between the two should be obvious, the quality of food correlates to its health benefits. Why do I need a study to back up what's common sense?
