A couple of years ago, scientists did a study. Maybe you heard about it. Maybe you didn't. But here it is again: For five days, one group of kids ate non-organic fruits and vegetables. The other group, nothing but organic produce.

For the kids who ate non-organic fruit, scientists found pesticide residue in their urine samples. The organic eating kids? Clean as a whistle.

And, it's more than pesticides we're talking here. All organic food is free of genetically modified organisms and is produced without synthetic growth hormones. The meat is never irradiated nor is it from clones. So, Star Wars: Clone Wars may be fun for kids, but cloned food is most certainly not.

The organic food you feed yourself and your kids is part of the most strictly regulated food system in the world. You want to do everything you can for your kids. So, if you can, when you can, give them organic food. They're worth it.

Great on a wish list. Even better crossed off your to-do list.
