whole foods is the most expensive of all
i avoid that place unless theres something very specific i want.
once i went there to buy sherry vinegar, it was like 15 bucks. went to gourmet warehouse after, it was 9 bucks.

farmers markets are a great place to buy organic produce and meats, but its usually not very cheap at all.

i dont eat that much organic food, but i dont think you'll notice any difference even if you ate it for a few months or possibly even years.

the point is theres thousands of toxic chemicals that you interact with on a daily basis, and by just changing your diet to 100% organic alone, you probably only reduce the % of chemicals you interact with by like 15%. the moment from when you wake up to when you leave your house you've probably encountered dozens of toxins, even if you skip breakfast. to notice a real difference, you'd have to understand the sources of all your life's controllable toxins and eliminate as many as possible.
