oh, my bad. I thought you were comparing "organic" to "processed"
I assumed canned, but I guess you could compare "organic" to "frozen" if you want...

I wouldn't. Not as nutritious as fresh.

Ok. And a fresh non-organically grown tomato is just as nutritious as an organically grown one given all the present scientific data so..why should I buy organic again if it's more expensive?

I agree. You shouldn't. Unless you believe that the non-organically grown ones are filled with bug spray leached from some sort of toxic chemical laiden soil...
I don't know nothing about that tho lol. I just eat tomatoes I grow in my garden which are better tasting than the organic ones at whole foods or the ones from Tony's.

I like the morons that go to farmers markets and buy "farm fresh tomatoes" that these idiots just bought from a grocery store, put in a bushel basket and marked up.

Never seen it. Aside from live sports, L&O reruns, and The Americans(plus whatever is sitting on the DVR I want to watch to kill some time) I really don't watch a ton of TV.

LOL totally. I saw this "farmer" swapping out some aldi eggs with his cartons and selling them for 6 bucks a dozen and saying they were free range vegetarian fed.
WTF is "vegetarian feed" if they are free range? My free range chickens eat snakes and poke through cow manure for worms and bugs i.e. what's they eat when you set some chickens to roam free on the range.

Hey uhhhh, just in case you guys are carnivores, I've got a 100% all-beef flesh trumpet swinging between my thighs like a pendulum that you're more than welcome to play some scales on.

Everyone knows from your posts your beef has been heavily processed and fear a recall.

You mean an all - beef piccolo?
Anyway. Back on topic!
FT, I was mostly talking about grass finished(organic) meat. Don't try telling me there's no difference between grass finished and feedlot livestock. Even if you could find a dozen studies to show there's no difference I still wouldn't eat the feedlot shit, it's fucking disgusting.
My girlfriend bought some steaks at Safeway a couple of months ago because it was on sale. We had been eating almost exclusively from Sprouts for a while by then but the deal was too good to pass up I guess. I couldn't eat more than half of mine because it tasted like a bag of ass

Its also an easy way to limit your meat intake. Change meat back to a delicacy like its supposed to be rather than a 3X per day thing.

Chalene McNeill, who has a Ph.D. in human nutrition and is executive director for human nutrition research at the association, acknowledges that "if you feed (cows) grass, you can slightly increase the omega-3 content, but if you look at it in terms of a whole diet, it's not a significant advantage to human health.

The last sentence of that post: I couldn't eat more than half of mine because it tasted like a bag of ass.
And you're right, kind of. The macronutrients are the same. But there are more vitamins and minerals in grass finished meats. Especially an EFA called conjugated linoleic acid. I've supplemented my diet with cla before and it definitely made a difference in my workouts and overall health during that period. And, every bit helps. IMO

Which is kind of odd since there's usually a bit more fat(flavor) in grain fed.
But as I pointed out not to any real significant degree as part of a normal diet.
Read Aragon's study.
