I am doing the weekly shop online and recently started to look into Organic food. Ever since having my DD I have become very aware of our family diet. One thing I started doing was washing fruit and veg with soap to remove pesticide residue and other chemical nasties from the surface. I have recently started using vinegar instead. I have also become more aware of food intolerance's and after much investigation have found what foods suit the family and each member best etc...

I am now wondering if washing chemicals off the surface of fruit and veg is enough and whether it is worth buying Organic from now on for all the food groups. I have found it all really confusing and would appreciate some input from those more knowledgeable on the subject. I know the basic differences Organic and In-organic, but does it really make enough of a difference to justify the cost?
