I think food quality is real and the same foods from certain stores taste better and make me feel better than from other stores. So I usually pick my food based on brand/store rather than organic labeling.

A lot of what I buy happens to be organic, but I eat it because it tastes good, not because of the label.

I do think organic bananas taste better than non-organic. Same with meat and eggs, but any high-quality meat is great, organic or not.

For flour, pasta, and cereal, I feel like it comes down to the brand, not whether it's organic.

Maybe food quality is more complex than what an organic label actually measures.

Maybe it's just because reducing treatment makes produces more fragile, which means by buying organic you end up eating fresher stuff just because it couldn't withstand the logistic that heavily treated food endure.
