Honestly, in a blind taste test for most fruits and veggies I generally prefer the flavor of the organic one, and that's enough for me. Maybe it's because of pesticides, maybe it's because of harvesting schedule, maybe it's because of other practices at the organic vs non-organic farm, but the fact is the organic fruits/veggies usually have a noticeably better flavor (not always, especially outside of the dirty dozen). This applies even more so to milk.

What annoys me is that organic is the "premium" selection for fruits & veggies at the grocery store.

If organic wasn't a thing, groceries would find a way to price discriminate, and the most likely way would be to sell tastier varietals raised with practices known to increase taste (like waiting till it's ripe before picking).

So deliberately tastier rather than accidentally tastier.
