This is a common thought among people who don't buy organic.
Organic is really NOT that expensive.. Look at it in the long run, these products are much better for you, less ingredients, less everything. This poses as a health benefit down the road. Medical expenses are always going to be much bigger then food prices.
What is the extra 1-5 dollars for something that is REAL or at least as close as it gets?
It really bugs me when people steer away from Farmers Markets for this reason.

You can adapt a high quality (I prefer that term over the USDA standard, organic) diet to your budget. One example would be by replacing certain things in your diet with high quality* whey protein. Whey is cheap. a 70 dollar bag will last you at least a week. That's 10 dollars a day. Get some beef tallow and mix them into the whey and that's just has filling as a nice juicy steak! You're assembling a meal with bulk ingredients and saving a lot of money by doing so. Take a look that product description of the whey product below. You can get beef tallow at cattle farms; even mail order. Grass fed cows, of course.

I don't buy weed, cigs, beer, etc. Organic is expensive and very hard to find in my area.
I do like going to farmers markets, but a lot of the sellers will openly admit that they are not organic.

Sorry sounds gross. Gimme a steak.
Where I'm from carrots are cheaper than chips and oranges are cheaper than candy bars. Ammo andf hunting license are cheap, so is helping a local farmer in trade.

Organic is more expensive and just a gimmick these days. The FDA has very lenient guidelines when it comes to certifying something organic.

You want something that is truly organic and cheap? Grow it yourself, you might learn something and get in shape

Its only a gimmick if you follow what the FDA has layed out for you.
I don't buy organic products just because the FDA say's it is. You have to look into the actual brand/supplier and go from there.. That's how you steer away from "gimmicks"
Growing your own is definitely the cheapest, safest and healthiest way though.

Quit spending their money the way they choose to spend it?
The stereotype you're addressing obviously wants the beer/weed/movies more than the organic food. Not everyone perceives pesticides in their food as a threat (but i do)
Besides, the term organic isn't what should matter. I just eat healthily and leave it at that

I drink raw goat milk every day, never been sick from it. it tastes a thousand times better than any other nasty goat milk. there's only one company allowed to sell it on the shelves in Oregon.

Um no. Eating real food is infinitely better for you than eating powder food. Whey is something you only use if you're starving, have exceeded ur daily calories for the day, or if you need immediate nourishment and muscle repair

Actually, there's no difference despite what you might want to think. Food is food. And good quality whey is incredibly nutritious, it just don't have the same amount of fat that meat does.

As a hunter/gatherer/ grower ummm no, I will argue till I die the importance of the direct connection to where your food comes frm and how close to how nature intend as possible. Food is not food, a bigmac is not whey powder is not walmart steak is not venison.

I have been getting raw milk over the summer and first off it tastes FANTASTIC. Leaps and bounds better than pasteurized. Also I've read a lot of reports on the health benefits of it.

The term organic is a necessity in this day and age. 100's of years ago? Everything was organic, thats just how it was. What food wasn't organic? So nothing was labeled as so.
We have so many processed foods and food that wasn't put together naturally, that people WANT to see the term organic because it states a type of quality they are typically looking for.
