Problems with the initial study
Just so everyone can keep themselves as informed as they choose
Here's an article written by the doctors from The Organic Center taking a look at the study in question.

Personally, I choose local whenever I can, organic next, and "conventional" whenever I can't. From what I understand it's better for the environment, my neighbors, and my family. If something is too expensive "organically" grown, then I might go without it until it's in season or I can find another source. It's especially important to my family as we have a toddler and DH and are currently TTC.
