Organic Foods Tastier?

Many claim organic food tastes better. The reason may be the way it is produced, or the higher nutrient content.

It is possible that organic foods taste better simply because it is fresher. Because organic farms tend to be smaller operations, they often sell their products closer to the point of harvest. Thus, organic fruits and vegetables taste more "farm fresh" than the comparable conventional produce.
However, organic foods can also have more flavor because organic farmers often breed with taste instead of marketability as the primary factor.

Conventional tomatoes, for example, are often bred to be perfectly red and round, to match the ideal appearance of a tomato. They are furthermore bred to be resistant to damage in transport and storage, for a longer shelf-life. This means that taste is an attribute that falls lower in priority. In addition to crop diversity and selection practices, organic farming also emphasizes soil nutrition, which can positively influence the taste of the food.

Certain food such as bananas are picked when unripe, then artificially enduced to ripened using a chemical (such as propylene or ethylene) while they are in transit, possibly producing a different taste. [2] [3] The issue of ethylene use in organic food production is contentious, with opponents claiming that its use only benefits large companies, and serves to open the door to weaker organic standards
