Is there any credence to this, or is it just in your head? There is a lot that goes into earning the organic label from regulators, and it‘s highly correlated with doing things slowly, the old-fashioned way. So the only way you can beat non-organic produce is with quality.
- randallsquared 7y ago> There is a lot that goes into earning the organic label from regulators, and it‘s highly correlated with doing things slowly, the old-fashioned way. So the only way you can beat non-organic produce is with quality. This sentence doesn't seem to be supported by the sentence before it, unless there's an assumption that slower and more old-fashioned methods produce higher quality products -- an assumption that seems questionable, at least.
- mikeash 7y agoLots of people buy organic on principle, so those are automatic customers regardless of quality. Many other people buy organic for quality, but that doesn’t actually require quality, merely the perception of it. For a lot of people, the “organic” label is enough to create that perception.
