How to tell if food is organic?

Consumers who are concerned about the origins of their food have turned to organic substitutes for their favorite foods. The problem with shopping for organic food is identifying which products are truly organic. Here are some tips to help you identify organic food:

Not the best looking in town: Organic foods are sometimes smaller, in odd shapes and with different colors than regular ones. But this has nothing to do with the nutritious quantity of the food, so don’t fret.

More Perishable: Organic foods are not sprayed with pesticides and preservatives hence there are chances that they are prone to spoil earlier.

Costly: Organic foods cost 15-30% higher than normal foodstuffs. The higher cost is due to expensive farming methods.
